White Line Fever by Merle Haggard, Guitar Town by Steve Earle, and a new one I have been listening too lately is Scott H. Biram, he has a few good trucking tunes, Truck Driver and 18 Wheeler Fever

Can't believe nobody has said "Eastbound and Down" by Jerry Reed.

When did Eddie Rabbit cover this song? I know the original was done by Dave Dudley and was cover by Swayer Brown and Boxcar Wille and Steve Earle.

You are correct. Dave Dudley IMHO did the best version of 6 Days on The Road.

Eddie Rabbit's Drivin' My Life Away. was the one I was going for. OOPS.

Actually I was asking when he covered it. I went to Napster to see and did not find it. Eddie Rabbit was a great artist.
