1995 Ford Ranger Exhaust clamp? Broke

1995 Ford Ranger Engine Size unknown Two Wheel Drive Manual 148000 miles

So all of a sudden my truck gets much louder and I look underneath my truck and notice towards the middle that where my two exhaust pipes come together, the ring-type clamp that holds the 2 together rusted through and broke. So basically my truck is much louder. Is it bad to drive while like this? Or not a big deal? Any "quick-fix" ideas ideas I could try for the time being before I take it in to get fixed? I was thinking bungee cords? Any ideas?
