"Ain't that America" - J.C. Mellencamp

A couple times a year I drive from Tennessee to Michigan. If I go through Indiana, it's impossible to not hear that song on the radio.

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

Which is a great driving song.
