After 400+ posts the winner so far seems to be “Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” by Gordon Lightfoot.
Some really good picks out there proving that Freepers are at the tops culturally.

“Taxi” by Harry Chapin.
The absolute first one that came to my mind. And it even has a "Sequel": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bD8sZFe9zxw

Also, his ‘Ballad of St. Anne’s Reel’ That one has a Celtic sound to it, like something from Ireland or the Canadian Maritimes - not quite Bluegrass, but related. Lots of "story songs" come from that variety of "roots music", which explains why Mark Knopfler's song catalog has a lot of mentions upthread.
