There ain't no such thing as a good non-country driving song. There's good music that isn't country, but for driving, country's the way to go:

I was totin my pack along the long dusty Winnamucka road
When along came a semi with a high canvas covered load
If your goin' to Winnamucka, Mack with me you can ride
And so I climbed into the cab and then I setteled down inside
He asked me if I'd seen a road with so much dust and sand
And I said, "Listen! I've traveled every road in this here land!"

I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man
I've breatherd the mountain air, man
Travel - I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere

Everywhere (In Texas): Brian Burns.
I was totin’ my pack along the dusty Amarillo road,
When along came a semi with a high and canvas covered load.
He said: “If you’re goin’ to Amarillo, Mac, I'll give you a ride.”
So I climbed up into the cab and then I settled down inside.
He asked me if I’d seen a road with so much dust and sand,
An' I said: “Listen, bud, I’ve traveled every road in this here land.”

I’ve been everywhere, man.
I’ve been everywhere, man.
I’ve crossed the deserts bare, man,
Breathed the mountain air, man.
Of travel I’ve had my share, man:
I’ve been everywhere.

I’ve been to Waco, Hico, Hondo, Navasota,
Winnsboro, Jacksboro, Hillsboro, Santa Rosa.
Austin, Houston, Galveston, Texarkana,
Frisco, Buffalo, Conroe, Corsicana.
Goliad, Groesbeck, Glen Rose, Red Oak,
Post Oak, Live Oak, Lone Oak, no joke.

I’ve been everywhere, man.
I’ve been everywhere, man.
I’ve crossed the deserts bare, man,
Breathed the mountain air, man.
Wind blowin' in my hair, man:
I’ve been everywhere.

I’ve been to Krugerville, Pflugerville, Van Horn, Val Verde,
Brackettville, Bartonville, Beeville, Bulverde.
Bear Creek, Cedar Creek, Mill Creek, Mineola,
Maypearl, Monahans, Telephone, Tuscola.
Redwater, Round Rock, Round Top, Round Lake,
Sour Lake, Southlake, Springlake, for Pete’s sake.

I’ve been everywhere, man.
I’ve been everywhere, man.
I’ve crossed the deserts bare, man,
Breathed the mountain air, man.
Drove my tyres bare, man:
I’ve been everywhere.

I’ve been to Greenville, Gatesville, Gainesville, Alameda,
Kerrville, Kellyville, Bastrop, Benavides.
Somerville, Smithville, Stephenville, Prairie View,
Luckenbach, Longview, Plainview, Idalou.
Justin, Junction, Panorama, Pasadena,
Angelina, and Lorena...see what I mean-a,

I’ve been everywhere, man.
I’ve been everywhere, man.
Crossed the deserts bare, man,
Breathed the mountain air, man,
Lottsa wear n' tear, man:
Well, I’ve been everywhere.

Now let me see,
I’ve been to Valley Mills, Pine Mills, Dime Box, Duncanville,
New Home, New Hope, New Deal, Liberty Hill.
Rockport, Rock Creek, Bridgeport, Brownwood,
Cleburne, Comanche, Cut & Shoot, Cottonwood.
Bayview, Bayside, Baytown, Bay City,
Falls City, Center City, Bridge City, what a pity.

I’ve been everywhere, man.
I’ve been everywhere, man.
Crossed the deserts bare, man,
Breathed the mountain air, man.
Travel, I've had my share, man:
Well, I’ve been everywhere.

Yeah, when it comes to travelin’ Texas, friends,
I’ve been everywhere, hey.

Instrumental fade out.
