I kinda like Hank Snow's version of "I've Been Everywhere"... and Harry Chapin's "30,000 Pounds of Bananas".

"He was picking speed as the city spread its twinkling lights below him.
But he paid no heed as the shivering thoughts of the night's
Delights went through him.
His foot nudged the brakes to slow him down,
But the pedal floored easy without a sound.
He said, "Christ!"
It was funny how he had named the only man who could save him now.
He was trapped inside a dead-end hellslide,
Riding on his fear-hunched back
Was every one of those yellow-green,
I'm telling you, thirty thousand pounds of bananas.
Yes, there were thirty thousand pounds of bananas."

The Best Trucker Song

My favorite trucking song is Red Simpson's version of 'Diesel Smoke, Dangerous Curves'. This song evokes that "truck runnin' down the road in the night in the middle of nowhere" feeling.

This is a remake, but done very well.

***link removed***
put this in your browser bar preceded by h-t-t-p-garbage, followed by upside down m's. Do you know what I mean?

this will take you to my file sharing page and you can download the song, otherwise, you're gonna have to limewire it.

As a new driver, my backing totally sucked, so my theme song was, and has remained, "Give Me 40 Acres To Turn This Rig Around". It always gives me a laugh.

YES very good choice, I like the live version on the Waiting for Columbus CD

Jerry Reed is great East bound and Down is classic as is Texas bound and Flyin.

I love to listen to Johnny Cash, but only at night CASH IS KING

nobody said 6 days on the road, thats a good one
