SpongeBob SquarePants and the Muppets!! We just need some Leon Redbone and the thread will be complete.

Done!!

Lovin' Spoonful recorded a bowdlerized version of this in the 60s. I like this one better.

I like Canned Heats On the Road Again. I am still pissed I didn't take their singer in the voice draft.

Moral Quandary: driving through school zone and "Radar Love" pops up on my playlist.

Love that Tom Waits song. Great choice John!

This song has always fascinated me -- I love listening to it, but can never figure out how they are doing what they are doing, especially with the chord changes (if there are any).

Black Sunshine by White Zombie

LA Woman by The Doors

Highway child by Jimi Hendrix

Casey Jones by The Grateful Dead

One more time

Amarillo Highway
Song by Terry Allen

Well
I'm a high straight in Plainview
Side bet in Idalou
An a fresh deck in New Deal
Yeah
Some call me high hand
An some call me low hand
But I'm holdin what I am…The Wheel
'Cause
I'm panhandlin
Man handlin
Post holin
High rollin
Dust Bowlin…Daddy
An I ain't got no blood veins
I just got them four lanes
Of hard…Amarillo Highway
Yeah
I don't wear no Stetson
But I'm willin to bet son
That I'm a big a Texan as you are
'Cause
There's a girl in her barefeet
'Sleep on the back seat
An that trunk is full of Pearl…and Lone Star
(chorus)
So
Gonna hop outta bed
Pop a pill in my head
Yeah, bust the Hub for the Golden Spread
Under blue skies
Gonna stuff my hide
Behind some power glide
An get some southern fried…back in my eyes
(chorus)
An close I'll ever get to heaven
Is makin' speed up ol' 87
Of that hard-ass…Amarillo Highway

Or Terry’s Flatland Boogie with Lucinda subtly in the background
