#Interestingly Dave Dudley earned the nickname King of Truck-Driving Country with songs that celebrated the long-haul lifestyle, like “Six Days on the Road” & “Truck Drivin’ Son‑of‑a‑Gun.” They became anthems for the workin’ man in the 1960's. #DaveDudley #OneHitWondered

#Interestingly Dave Dudley sings, "I'm taking little white pills and my eyes are open wide," referring to the stimulants some truckers used to keep driving. Some remakes replace the words with a reference to looking at the white lines on the road. 😂 #DaveDudley #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
