Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] CB crackles in the cab Coffee’s gone cold by the dash Nameplate hangin’ by a thread Been runnin’ hard, runnin’ fast Static, then your handle hits Like a ghost in the rain “Breaker one-nine,” soft and low Calling out your name [Chorus] Last call, James “Mud Flap” Hicks Mud Flap, you hauled your last load We’ll take it from here, buddy You can ease off that road Ten-four, we still hear you clear Ridin’ shotgun in our prayers Last call, Mud Flap, my friend We got it from here [Verse 2] Saw your boots by bay three Dust and diesel in the seams Laugh still hangin’ in the shop Like you just stepped off the scene Now the mile signs blur by But the cab feels strange Every weigh station light Spells out your name [Chorus] Last call, James “Mud Flap” Hicks Mud Flap, you hauled your last load We’ll take it from here, buddy You can ease off that road Ten-four, we still hear you clear Ridin’ shotgun in our prayers Last call, Mud Flap, my friend We got it from here [Bridge] [Band drops to almost a whisper] Breaker one-nine, any copy On that angel in the air? (hey…) If you’re out there on that highway Save a lane for us up there [Chorus] Last call, James “Mud Flap” Hicks Mud Flap, you hauled your last load We’ll take it from here, buddy You can ease off that road Ten-four, we still hear you clear Ridin’ shotgun in our prayers Last call, Mud Flap, my friend We got it from here [Outro] [Pedal steel swells, vocal soft] Yeah, last call, Mud Flap We got it from here

Laid-back trucking country with male vocals, shuffling brushes on snare, warm pedal steel swells, and a soft upright bass. Verses keep it intimate and conversational; chorus opens wider with stacked harmonies and a gentle organ pad. Subtle telecaster twang answers vocal phrases, ending with a quiet, reflective tag and a long fade on the band.
