Whether you’re taking that cross country trip you always planned, out on a scenic Sunday drive through the country, or fighting road rage on a jammed up highway, these songs are the perfect soundtrack to the streets. Pop in you favorite Willie Nelson Greatest Hits CD (ha) and get back on the road again!

I had to cut this short as I found tons of songs that could fit this post. I left a lot of great stuff off for now, let me know which ones you think should go on future post like this.

Sir Mix-A-Lot - "My Hooptie" Rush - "Red Barchetta" Creedence Clearwater Revival- "Around the Bend" Eddie Kendricks-"Keep On Truckin' "
