From Terminator 2: Judgement Day. Classic song, one of my favourite country tracks.

Cigarettes, Jack Daniels and caffeine'

Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made
Driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed
And if you give me: weed, whites, and wine
And you show me a sign
Then I'll be willin', to be movin

Well I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison
And I went to pick her up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in the pick-up truck
She got runned over by a damned old train

Also this! I remember my mum forever playing this song when I was younger. I also had a huge crush on Shania when I was 8.

That movie and Smokey and the Bandit pretty much launched the brief fad with cb radio in this country. Albeit most users were operating out their bedroom as opposed to big rigs....

Shouldn't there be some sort of multiple choice quiz type deal that works this out for us?

The Backwards Man · 22-01-2015 11:55PM

Great idea for a thread O. . . oh!

There was a pirate radio station around here for a while and you're man running it didn't even have a phone, the only way to contact him for requests and stuff was via CB. When I was a kid I used pretend to be all different people and radio in requests from the aul lad's truck, yer man thought he was Ian Dempsey!:pac:

I like both kinds. Country AND western. Someone had to say it.

I have never identified with country songs. But if I had to identify with one and one only - there is only one master
