Popular Post mackdaddy Posted December 29, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2015 I have a collection of Mack songs that were produced when Zenon was boss. One is done by Roger Miller in the tune of King of the Road and it is titled......Mack makes the world's best trucks.another favorite is Feather River Canyon by Johnny Cash's brother............name slips me.anyone listened to Dale Watson? He has some outstanding trucking songs that he wrote himself. and my theme song for being in this hobby....Jr Brown and Red Simpson singing Semi Crazy..........might have a little shimmy in this cracker box Jimmy but I aint cracked up yet! 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43311-favorite-trucker-songs-from-back-in-the-day/#findComment-317746 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underdog Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I heard a song by Dave Dudley about the Maxidyne cool power. It was included in the evil Knievel video at the Mack museum. I have searched for this song or any information about it and have come up empty. I would like to hear the entire song. I'm sure Zenon had something to do with the marketing on that one.Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43311-favorite-trucker-songs-from-back-in-the-day/#findComment-317751 Share on other sites More sharing options...

57 bcr Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Good thread! How about "If the world ran out of Diesel" by Red Simpson. Ironically,this song came out like 6 months before the Arab Oil Embargo and was barely played after that.

Joe Ditchkus Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Timmyb CB Savage was about a radar cop that was about as queer as a $3.00 potato. When he started to pull them over his voice would get normal. Joe D.
