This has to be the quintessential one: Alabama -- Forty Hour Week

But this one is my favorite ... an anthem for "Trump Country," in my mind: Jason Aldean -- Fly Over States

How about “Movin On” by Merle Haggard. One rare TV title I would not mind seeing brought back to the nostalgia channels.

Well, I was going to say several other songs but though most won’t like this one I really do, although I do not agree with his view of the working class.

Hey, we cannot all be rich and famous. Working for a living is an honest thing and I do appreciate the workers out there, and I am one. There is no shame in it, but John had away with a song.
