    My absolute favorite trucking song:

    To call Little Feat’s the “wrong version” is fightin’ words.

    So, was number 4 the wrong version? It was Australian then British before it was American.

    I linked to Lucky Starr in post #4!


    I figure that when you have a choice of multiple renditions of a country song, Johnny Cash's rendition is usually the best choice.

    I've driven those roads in N Maine while stationed at Loring AFB. Took a wrong turn one night and forty miles later realized I should'a been where I was going already. Had to drive another 150 miles to correct my error. lucky I started out with a full tank of gas in my old Studebaker Lark.
