When it comes to truck music, Dave Dudley rocks. He knows how to sing it at the right pitch. Perfect tribute to all the truckers who keep America moving.Terrible you don't hear music like this on radio thanks to the modern wannabes who pretend to be country which took over and threw out the old classics that made country music what it is.
I do agree that it is saddening this type of music is not made anymore. But I think it makes it that much more special, it has its own flair for the era it represents, just as modern country does today, and certainly will in 40 years just as Dave Dudley does today. :)
This song was originally written and recorded in 1954 by Terry Fell and the Fellers. A band member of Fellers was a guy by the name of Alvis Edgar Owens. He would record this song 10 years later under his nick "Buck." From my late wife's notes. My Shannon has been in Heaven going on two years now. I can not even describe the hurt, pain, and broken heart. 43 years young, forever. God Bless my Shannon. Tears and memories are all I have left. God save us all. Hug those you love. Tell them you do right now. You may never get another chance. Nothing is as terrible or as final as your loved one's name chisled in stone.
I have heard that Buck Owens was in Fellers band and he re - recorded the song .This is the version of ,which I'm most familiar with and it is my favorite .
Love the truck driving music since I was 6 years old maybe. The kind of trucker your father was/was the real truckers. You’re going to be with him again, no worries about that. Your in our prayers.
Dave could really sing. I don’t know if he ever drove a truck but he could sure sing like he did. I have heard his songs thousands of times still enjoy them. Some tell the story of my life or at least some chapters of my life.
Actually not. Terry Fell and the Fellers sang this in 1954. The same year Terry wrote it. A band member of the Fellers was a guy named Alvis Edgar Owens, and he would record it 11 years later under his stage name, Buck. From my late wife, Shannon Burns' notes. Gone to be with her savior in Heaven 22 months ago. I miss her and cry for her like it was 22 minutes ago. I love you Shannon. Your Denny.

I wanted to buy a Freightliner conventional and it had a CAT 3306. Truck was beautiful but sensing not enough horsepower, didn't purchase, but truck was pretty 😁 !
Yo! This was on an 8 track called “Keep on Truckin’”. It was... put another nickel in the juke box. What gives?!? 2021 I put another palladium bitcoin in the juke box. Cause I’m a truck drivin’ man.
Today's version would be sell me another monster beverage, 'cause it's what sell at pilot. I'll download another rap.song, 'cause I'm a Volvo drivin man
You're right. Check out Heidi Hauge, Heather Myles, Darrel Armstrong, Bjoro Haland, Larry Cunningham, Hoss Curtis, Pamela Gilmartin, Ben Haggard, Tayla Lynn, Whey Jennings, Olivia Harms, Dave and Sugar, Kirsten Dauggard, Niamh Lynn and Shawn Diddy on youtube and see if they're any good and true to country music tradition..
Well let's see...the "voice" is great really! But the band. did not do what Buck Owens band did. In other words. IF Dave Dudley had Bucks Steel Guitar player; and Bucks fiddle and guitar player; this music would be the best in the world; on this incredible song. Oh indeed.
