You have to be, or have been, an OTR truck driver (and good at it) to know the feeling of pushing hard all week (or two or three or more), and rolling down the ‘home stretch’. Disclaimer: I never used the ‘little white pills’ to stay awake. Dave Dudley had the voice that really fit the song.

This isn’t exactly country, but I listen to Alison Krauss radio on Pandora a lot and this artist comes up. Her voice is beautiful and stays with you, if you like this kind of music. Unfortunately, she’s not with us still.
