A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of drought and flooding rains,..enough with the floods already..."

Pop, in my car club called the Fossils we have a guy called Wolfman Jack and he goes to several local and well known car shows with his yellow 56 GM panel van and plays all the oldies. He specializes in songs about cars and he plays that Johnnie Cash song along with many others that I have never heard. He talks and sounds just like the original Wolfman. He does all the music for Lead East and goes to car shows in South Dakota.popscomet wrote:Johnny CASH came out with a song yrs ago about that vehicle popalbert wrote:Looks like a Heinz 57 vehicle to me.............

Re: This used to be a Falcon...
I don't remember a song like that from Johnny Cash. I do have his song One Piece At A Time as a ring tone on my phone. Also have Alan Jacksons Mercury Blues on my phone as a ringtone. That's my current one. Cool songs both.

Re: This used to be a Falcon...
Don't think I ever heard either version. Still a neat song befitting this group. I like it.

Re: This used to be a Falcon...
Agreed, the song is One Piece At A Time. Always remember when I worked at Ford how the guys that worked on the line would talk about how you could steal one piece each day and eventually build a car. I always wondered how they would steal an engine or fender without getting caught at the security gate when you left your shift.
