Nobody's ever done this great country classic quite like Buck Owens and his Buckaroos did on this excellent album from the early 60's. I had the pleasure of meeting Buck at an outdoor concert in Indiana back in that era and was highly impressed by what a gracious and down to earth person he was. Not only a great artist, but also a fine man IMHO.
i know im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a way to get back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb forgot the login password. I would love any help you can give me
This song (and most everything that Buck Owens sings) brings tears to my eyes and a feeling of nostalgia to my heart. There was nothing like that early-on country music, when the Mother Church of Country Music was in its home and its heyday. Nothing like it. I long for those old days. My heart broke when I heard the Ernest Tubb Record Store in Nashville is closing... the end of an era (in more ways than one), The nonsense country music nowadays is more rock than country. I wish musicians would bring that type of country music back and challenge these country rock artists these days.
These songs bring back a lot of memories. Grew up in Chicago in the sixties. Back then, you had four great stations back to back on the AM dial. WLS rock, WGRT soul, Super CFL rock, WJJD country. My mom was an Alabama girl who would have all those country classics playing on WJJD as she got us ready for school. Years later, I relocated to Jamaica. They love their country music down there. Even met a Jamaican Bull Riding Champion. Seems his folks immigrated to Calgary, where he picked up the rodeo bug and love of country music. Now I am married to a South Indian beauty. She plays eleven instruments and knows all the great country songs. The great Jim Reeves is still one of the best selling artist in India. Johnny, George, Merle, Buck, Waylon, Stonewall, Jim, Charlie, Patsy, Loretta, Tammy. There is noone gonna fill there shoes.
Many have and are playing original tunes inspired by this very type of original country music you describe. Unfortunately, the public at large, isn't always ready for something "different" than what is in popular culture at any given time.
Agreed. I know of Buck Owens from the Country Bear Jamboree! One of the bears, Terence “The Shaker” sings “How Long Will My Baby Be Gone.” I hate today’s country too. Post Malone is going to debut at the Grand Ole Opry this Saturday and it makes me sick I thought the Opryhouse was still safe. Apparently not. Country Music Is Dead.
Sadly, that is too late. Sadder, it is gone for ever. Most all of the true Country singers are dead. The "yunguns" simply do NOT cotten to this kind of music today and they never will. Breaks my heart.
My daddy drove a semi for 32 years and he loved him some Buck Owens. And he loved this song there's a lot of good old truck driving songs out there. Google hog howler. Truck drivers prayer
Spent a few weeks out of town in bakersfield, wouldn't trade this man for the world. It's hard to be tough with sequin's but fuck if buck didn't pull it off.
My parents had this song on one of many truckin' song 8-tracks we had back in the 1970s. My father had a small truckline in KCMO so I knew all these songs by heart. Just remembered this one this morning for some reason.
This is the perfect song to listen to while you're driving down the countryroads. One of the best country songs ever made. Terry Fell's original version of this song is a beautiful song too.
For years, I tried getting into the music industry. Little did I know that I was meant to be an industry where songs would be written about what I do. I’m proud to be a truck drivin man!
As they say, God works in mysterious ways. I never would have immagined myself getting involved with music either, as I work with DSP and system modelling, however ironically one thing led to another and here I am designing and optimizing sound systems for raves. My advice, if one thing does not work, try another and see what comes of it.
I found a buck owens record today while clearing out my uncles house, he always loved music, not a bad box player either when the mood struck him, hoping to clean the record up and play it in my turntable . loving this music
When I was little, this was my every morning. I would wake up and to my dad in the kitchen making his coffee, singing this so out of tune it made the lawn mower sound like opera. Nostalgia is a hell of a drug.
I read your comment just after I made a cup of coffee while singing along and the neighbor mowing his lawn at the same time! Ha, impeccably synchronistic...
Thomas Gibson:Just now,I saw and read your brief new message. First,thanks for sharing those responsive personal thoughts. Please know that what you have said is truly appreciated. Thank you.

Buck Owens captured the down-to-earth sound of bar room honky tonk country and western combined with the dynamic energy of rockabilly. I really love the great Bakersfield style of a few decades ago.
Buck Owens:First,thanks for posting and sharing this perticular video. Watching it. Hearing this Buck Owens And The Buckaroos song. So much can be said here. This is an amazing music performance. Classic Buck Owens/Bakersfield sound. Hearing his twangy and lyrical voice. The slight growl of that lead Fender guitar. Buck working with Don Rich. Singing in awesome harmony. Keeping time with the rhythmic beat. You see the vivid mind pictures. In these lyrics. Awesome,plain and simple. Once again,thanks for posting and sharing this awesome video.
Buck was truly a good 'ol boy. I saw him in Kansas City in '64. He really packed them in this dance hall. I think he was 24 at the time. the tragedy was that he was too ambitious and burned himself out without really having time enough on this earth.
This is certainly the definitive version of this song. Buck played lead guitar in Terry Fells band at the time this song was written. That's Jay MacDonald on the steel in this track.
Gina The Great:Just now,I saw and read your brief new message. First,thanks for sharing those responsive personal thoughts. Please know that what you have said is truly appreciated. Thank you.
Not just another classic Buck Owens song. Another great song by Buck Owens. So many memories. My Daddy love to watch the Buck Owens show. But so did I and my Mom.
heard David Allan Coe do a version of this great country music by a legend Buck Owens alot of people think he was just hee haw but he was so much more Don Rich's telecaster &the rest of the Buckaroos
I was always a big buck owens fan always went to his concerts when they were in the Midwest region I listened to the grand old opry on wsm radio from 1962 to 2009 thank you
I was darn fortunate to work for BUCK OWENS and his sons at Buck's former Phoenix Country radio station. I was there 8 years, The best years of a 45 plus year broadcasting career.
"Truck Drivin' Man" is a popular country song written and recorded by Terry Fell in 1954.[1] One of his band members, Buck Owens, sang harmony with him on the recording. In 1965, Owens recorded the song himself, omitting the fourth verse - "When I get my call up to glory, They will take me away from this land, I'll head this truck up to Heaven, 'Cause I'm a truck drivin' man."[2] Others who have recorded the song include Ricky Nelson, Boxcar Willie, Charley Pride, Bill Anderson, Conway Twitty, Jimmy Martin, Dave Dudley, Red Simpson, Jim & Jesse, Charlie Walker, The Flying Burrito Brothers, George Hamilton IV, Glen Campbell, New Riders of the Purple Sage,[3] Willie Nelson, Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen, Anthony Field, Plainsong, David Allan Coe, Leon Russell, Toby Keith, Aaron Tippin, Robert Walker, the J. Geils Band, and Canadian musician Dick Nolan. "Truck Drivin' Man" is also covered by Nordre Sving Blandede Mannskor og Orkester as "Trailersjåfør", with Norwegian lyric by Finn Sidselrud.
5 stars.....there surely is no dispute who the best country band was in 60's and 70's. Pure and simple country. No smoke and mirrors or pretty girls necessary
Yes this was one of the GREATEST of Buck Owens "GEMS", but the reason is his band. And his steel guitar player was also one of THE" greatest steel players there will ever be.
@@davidpreston7819 Oh David, I did not know; that you replied to my comment. Please forgive dear brother. Yes, I in my 91 yrs old age; loves the TRUE Country music; and I will take it to my grave. I never played a regular guitar. But I did try to play the Steel Guitar. But I was never any good. BUT...Jesus blessed me to become friends with MOST of the Greatest Steel Guitar players for over 85 yrs. I shall never forget them. For MOST of them have gone 'ON". Sad, but true... May Jesus rest their precious Souls. And to you David, may Jesus bless you and yours always. And thank you for your reply dear friend.🤠❤
Hamburger Dan’s - located right here in my hometown in Texas! 😉 Commander Cody does my other favorite version of this number on their Trucker Favorites record
Love that song and "The Bakersfield Sound"! The Wynn Stewart, Merle Haggard (who suggested the name Buckaroos), Don Rich, Roy Nichols, Buck Owens songs and sounds. What a time to be alive in California!
Don't forget Tommy Collins and Bob Morris & Faye Hardin among others. Bob was a super nice guy and ran Buck's Blue Book publishing up on North Chester in Oildale.Bob also wrote "(They Call Me A)Playboy" for Wynn Stewart. All the comments take me back to The Lucky Spot on the old East side of Bakersfield, one of the places Merle Haggard got his start.

I stopped at a road house in Texas it was a little place called Hamburger Dan's And I heard that old jukebox a playin' a song about a truck drivin' man Pour me another cup of coffee for it is the best in the land I'll put a nickel in the jukebox and play the Truck Drivin' Man The waitress just brought me some coffee I thanked her but called her again I said that old song sure does fit me cause I'm a truck drivin' man Pour me another cup of coffee... I climbed back aboard my old semi and then like a flash I was gone I got them old truck wheels a rollin' I'm on my way to San Antone Pour me another cup of coffee... And play that Truck Drivin' Man
Had a band play that for me at a nightclub , the night after I passed my CDL 1 road -test ....{ 2011} ... Actually , the lead-singer thought of it , when I shared that with him .... Turns out he either had been currently driving or he Had driven ...... Either way ,it was pretty cool of him ... Wish I could remb. his name .... He was a Big man .... { 6' 7" } Wore jean overalls and a tie .... { smiles , in remembrance ... He passed a few years back .. }
In my humble opinion, the best rendition of "Truck Drivin' Man" is by Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen. Their combination of Western swing and country rock makes the song.
Fun fact.. My gf Katie Plessis'es dad Fred Plessis was the first 'Friend of the road' in Richer Manitoba Canada... (he knew his way round the back seat of a rig)
[Verse 1] I stopped at a road house in Texas A little place called Hamburger Dan's I put a quarter in the jukebox Play the Truck driving Man The waitress she poured me some coffee I thanked her and called her back again I said this song sure does fit me Cause I'm a truck driving man [Chorus] Pour me another cup of coffee For it is the best in the land I'll put a quarter in the jukebox And play the Truck Driving Man [Verse 2] I climbed up inside my old semi And then like a flash I was gone I had them old wheels rolling I'm on my way to San Antone [Chorus] Pour me another cup of coffee For it is the best in the land I'll put a quarter in the jukebox And play the Truck Driving Man [Chorus] Pour me another cup of coffee For it is the best in the land I'll put a quarter in the jukebox And play the Truck Driving Man And play the Truck Driving Man
In the late 90s I played bass in the band Liquid Prairie in St. Louis. This song was always a crowd pleaser. Now I'm living this song! Life imitates art and vice versa!
I remember watching Jimmy Dean's TV show week after week hoping to see Buck Owens and his band! Great three-part vocal harmony on the Buckaroos' version of this tune--usually it was just Buck and Don singing. Probably Doyle Holly on the third part.
It may be the most widely known version, and it rocks, but the definitive version is by Jimmy Martin, King of Bluegrass and singer of more than one great truck drivin' song.
Robbie Schmitz:Just now,I saw and read your brief new message. First,thanks for sharing those responsive personal thoughts. Please know that what you have said is truly appreciated. Thank you.

I was getting really tired driving from Kentucky back down to San Antonio...This song came on and my soul woke up...

This song is honestly on a whole other level of meta. He's singing from the perspective of a trucker talking about the song he's singing 🤯

Surely. Buck & Don Rich best ever Bakersfield guys.

Buck owens is the most popular in the musical 🎶 and the music is the best music for your favorite song
Don’s voice is the best for harmonies.
One of my favorites
Good story teller. Life at its roots
Buck owens is the most popular music player into the world of music player ever played in this song
thank you for posting this song... I am learning it on my baritone ukulele to pair with "streets of Bakersfield".
Sometimes you just have to put on your hat and cowboy boots, sit down, crank up Buck Owens records and yyeeeee hooow!
Back in 1980 I visted one of his Radio Stations in Bakersfield on my way to Ft
Irwin.ca that was music ?
Buck and Don were country magic.

Buck owens I have to make sure that I have the best way of songs that are in this song for your country music
Best song ever
Let's all go to Bakersfield!
No thanks
I stopped at a road house in Texas it was a little place called Hamburger Dan's
And I heard that old jukebox a playin' a song about a truck drivin' man
Pour me another cup of coffee for it is the best in the land
I'll put a nickel in the jukebox and play the Truck Drivin' Man
The waitress just brought me some coffee I thanked her but called her again
I said that old song sure does fit me cause I'm a truck drivin' man
Pour me another cup of coffee...
I climbed back aboard my old semi and then like a flash I was gone
I got them old truck wheels a rollin' I'm on my way to San Antone
Pour me another cup of coffee...
And play that Truck Drivin' Man
Fantastic. Song
Fantastic artist and Sound
Advertising your own song in the same song is genius.

Play the Truck driving Man
The waitress she poured me some coffee
I thanked her and called her back again

Cause I'm a truck driving man

Pour me another cup of coffee
For it is the best in the land

I climbed up inside my old semi
And then like a flash I was gone
I had them old wheels rolling
I'm on my way to San Antone

I'll put a quarter in the jukebox

buck owens was great example of what original country music was all about steve williamson
This is what made me wanna drive trucks.
I remember watching Jimmy Dean's TV show week after week hoping to see Buck Owens and his band!
Great three-part vocal harmony on the Buckaroos' version of this tune--usually it was just Buck and Don singing. Probably Doyle Holly on the third part.

I don’t like country. I like 80’s heavy metal, Slayer, Metallica etc. but this song is almost better than anything metal I’ve ever heard in my life.
