God Bless our Truckers
God Bless Our Truckers ! ❤
amen lost one who was my first instant friend many years ago his fully loaded tanker trucker some how flipped and blew up. never got over the fact that he burned to death. I've been told he would not have felt any thing but somewhere In the back of my mind I wonder
Truck drivers are the backbone of this country and should be respected for what they do !
amen
But unfortunately we don’t get the respect we are due and despite that we still lug whatever to wherever for whoever week in week out. Everywhere but home 👋🏻.
Damm straight and they deserve RESPECT nothing but
Thank you
Yes indeed respect for the Truckers I had 26 year's under My belt before I retired
For my daddy, Big Bill Woods, who had a massive heart attack behind the wheel in midday traffic but managed to pull the truck over before he passed. Dad, you are my hero
God Bless a driver that uses his last bit of life to save others
Great song.
The story is about the virtues of sacrifice. It's almost a biblical them.
I recall an old WWII movie. Think Robert Mitchum was lead actor. At the end the a Japanese pilot was about to bomb the shit out of Mitchum's young family but suddenly a Catholic priest fires up the truck on a suicide run. The Japanese gunner destroys the priest and his truck then flies off. Thinking that his work is done.
And with the enemy gone Mitchum takes his family to safety.
So sorry to hear about your dad god bless him. And love you from Scotland.
❤🤗🙌 my prayers are with you and your family
Sorry for your loss!! God was with him .
The first truck I ever drove was B model Mack. That was 47 years ago, and I retired from driving, not too long ago. To all brothers on the road; past, present, and future, safe miles and many smiles.
I'm 48, learned all the trucker songs since I was 2 years old. My daddy drove a semi since I was born, he passed away in 2007. His name was Joe. This song means alot to me, like Teddy Bear, and many many more. TRUCKERS LIVES MATTER! ~ Whitney Eanes, Va
Love ya story your life is similar to mine
My was dad was a truck driver
Ok
Been to long since I Heard this
Regarding truckers' lives mattering, how's Reginald Denny?
Don't ever let this be removed. This is a childhood favourite that will forever put chills down my spine. Red deserves to be known.
Chills. Exactly.
Red died in 1980 I was born in 1992 but I find this song great at my 32.
A childhood favorite? I don't member hearing it. Don't anything about barney either, but then I had a dad who didn't believe in wasting time.
Breaker 19 anyone got there ears on .
I just wanted to know if anyone still listening to this song after all these years.
I will listen forever
@@BlacksmithingandBodybuilding yea same
I still listen to his music
That's a big 10/4 good buddy
10-4 buddy i grew up on these songs and always will
3rd generation driver myself. Grew up with these songs. Grandfather drove for 38 years, dad for 47 and 10 for me
Thank you
~ grateful daughter of a log truck driver.
25+ me
Nan drove, so did dad. Both are in our National Transport Hall of Fame. I got my HR licence near a year to the day of holding my Nan's hand as she passed away. Hardest day of my life. Just wanted to say hi, hope your days are free of worry friend
My dad and brother were both long haul truckers. They deserve all of the respect that we have. They make America work.
Red Sovine is one of the best song writer and story tellers of this type of Music for All time he the G.O.A.T.
My Dad was a truck driver for over 40 years. He. Loved his job and being a truck driver. He drove coast to coast and state to state. He was always gone. Then he got sick and had a pulmonary heartache and passed away. But I loved my dad and respected his job. I love you dad your gone but not forgotten. ❤
Ben driving these big trucks since 70. Use to listen to this music while driving. Still doing it almost 55 yrs. Love the job and the music. Truckers are the back bone of the nation.
Heroes get remembered but legends never die. This man is a legend
Triple amen
Legends never Die, They're just Retold
Hello will how are you doing today?
you are creccet
But you fo realize the folks that sing about truck drivers never drove a truck, right? Honestly I don't think too much of drivers today. I started driving in '86 and in the seventies learned how to twin stick in a bad ass Freight shaker that you literally had to climb into the sleeper. Still know how to twin stick and climbed doghouse into a sleeper. Walking were a luxury and I hate condo's. And... I will cut my own through before I would ever drive an automatic. I own many times over a 78 K100 big bunk flat top with a now 18 speed tranny. Can't put a 6×4 Spicer in in a cabover. Not enough room. But if it had a hood I would damn sure have a hole cut out. My truck originally had a 365 Kitty Cat in front of a 15 speed. Still got the deep reduction switch for looks though on the dash. The only difference is I can split the bottom and top ends instead of just the top. So hard to keep the truck original now. The steering wheel is a hard plastic Beige thee spoke. That is even special order. Even the high low switch has to be special ordered. Always park where the lot lizards are on "partyrow" 'cause all the curb sniffer drivers can't walk that far. Right?
Before anyone ever goes out and rescues an older truck think insurance. A 78 K100 is just a 78 K100 no matter how much money you dump into it. You can fight Swift's insurance company if you wanna try but you won't win if your truck is totalled out by them. Insurance is a tax write off. So insurance it. I have dumped probably estimating 700 thousand dollars in this truck to keep it like new not to mention 100 thousand on a 15 thousand dollar purchase. I pay extra insurance.
I probably love my truck as much as I love my wife. My wife is 50 and my truck looks brand new. Thank God I am old because it's getting harder and harder to keep her looking like new. But she's like me. The interior is the original KW high end diamond tuck even the doghouse. Harder and harder to find upholstered to keep it original nowdays.
these songs I carry them with me all through these years. I'm 50 yrs old and each time I hear them they still send chills up and down my spine.
I'm 45 and my dad was a long haul truck driver. He had this album and i remember listening to it as a young child; original vinyl on a turntable, I believe. Could of been 8 track too, I guess. Anyway, I relate to what you said cuz I remember them so clearly. Just introduced my 12 year old daughter to them.
The terms- Large Car/ pick'em uptruck, redideo(radio) hammer down/ Monfort Lane and pickle parks will always be apart of you- and although you may not know it- but asphalt is in your blood- I'll be 67 and had to quit '85 and it still seems like yesterday.
I know what you're saying.
Same
It's 2021 and I'm here cuz my old man told me to listen to some red sovine and this and teddy bear were rhe first 2 songs I listened to....we need to keep the word about artists and songs like these, this doesn't get to the young folks and they tend to forget and repeat history....we need more music like this to bring empathy back to the human being were sooooo cold now a days its absurd were going into a depression as I type this and it's because we've lost touch w people like this over the years....
RED SOVINE IS THE BEST STORY TELLER I LOVE TO LISTEN TO
I drove over the road for 43 years, still kickin'' & missing that Way of Life! Never was a Job for me, just came natural. These songs will never grow old, just us old drivers! 75 and still alive! ( Still got my CDL!)
Hats off to you sir, may you live a long, happy, and healthy life..
Enjoy your retirement, sir, you earned it.
Best regards from a 33yo dispatcher that will jump in a fire for his 53ft dry van drivers rolling in my fleet..
God knows that we need more OG drivers knowing how to drive stick shift as they are becoming extremely rare.
I have listen to Red all my life. My step dad was a trucker.
I have been a driver for 25years now and i can honestly say a lot of weird things happen on the hwy but it's songs like this that tell people how much heat true truckers have...
It still amazes me the things we saw out on those highways. For me I-80, I-74, I- 55 mostly. The cross roads of America.
Model T was there
@@modeladenny1218 hi
Hello Clint how are you doing today?
Am I the only one listening to this in 2020?...lol I love driving the big rigs!! ❤️
Your not alone I'm always listening
Steve Yes 🤗
Glad I’m not alone...lol
Nope I listen to it on you tube .every day
Me too
This was based on a true story. Pete Trudelle, Jan 29, 1963. Turned the wheel to avoid a school bus with kids on board.
Awwwww that's so sad
Good man
Was a trucker across nth America for many years..I often listen to this song..along with my coffee and this song it got me though the night.
God bless and safe travels
I know the daughter of the truck driver that saved those kids..she was just tellin me the story because I asked her why she had a pin of a dime on her badge. She told me the whole story. She told me to listen to the song Phantom 309, because it was about her father. So I came to listen to the song myself. And I almost cried. When you really know the story from someone related to the one in the song, it hits real deep. God bless you “Big Joe” for saving those children in the cost of your own life. ♥️ may you rest in peace 🌹
That's awesome
Thank You for Sharing your story. Salute
Amen
Wow what a hero
What a beautiful story and Beautiful song and a wonderful man Big Joe was God bless your family for having such a great human being
My dad ran trucks for over 20yrs. His prettiest rig was an R model Mack, white with a slight blue hue. Me and the neighborhood kids loved her sound. Dads still kicking, and still one of heroes. God bless you Phantom 309
No, Your not the only one listening to these songs in 2020. I love these songs. My oldest son drives a rig. He stays out a week at a time.
*You're
January 1st 2021
My mom stays put for a month at a time ,makes me sad
A whole week? Wow!
That’s my grandfather songs mate I love them are playing every single day with respect and honour
when i was about 10 , me and my mom were driving down the highway and we came over a hill and traffic was stopped . a 18 wheeler was next to us doing 65mph atleast and as soon as he seen the cars were stopped , he hit the exit that was on his right. there was no doubt that he was going to flip when he swerved onto that exit and he knew it was going to when he swerved. the truck flipped as soon as the exit curved and i swear the truck was still sliding when i saw the door fly open and the driver climbing out. it amazed me and i knew that that man saved alot of lives when he took that exit and he did it knowing that it was no gonna go well for him. he was a hero in my eyes.
Hello how are you doing n
This man wrote the best ballads ever. I never grow tired of this song.
God blessed us with all the truckers,because of them we get to have oranges in the winter. Because of them people get to eat many varities of food year round. God bless all you extraordinary TRUCKERS!!!!!!!!!!
I grew up on red sovine, Loretta lynn, Tanya tucker, dolly parton, Brenda lee, Eddie rabbit, Merle haggard, ... and so many more amazing musical artists. ..
Same and I'm only 23. I was raised right.
Pam Maes My younger days , with my dad was trucker driver back then, 1970s truck strikes. Was lots hard times back then, love classic hit songs of truck songs and Country Music sound. Be oldest child , listen to Cb radio. Lots great memories lots great country music artists, when got see Fan Fair back 1989 lots country music artists at Booth. To me was like dream come true. All years listening on radio stations, most back then some go off air my midnight hours , then Trucker show after hours. Nice remember classic hits songs. Loretta Lynn Birthday coming up April 14 1932. Still writing songs. Today but slower. And Dolly Pardon well got Nascar Racing make up of Dolly Pardon Photo. So beautiful. In Bristol, Tennessee . Did got see Tanya Tucker free show one day , all classic hits songs. Got see Eddie Rabbits in concert now he pass away, Merle Haggard he past away but his music live on Forever. And Tammy Wynette die 1998 in April sure 5 or 6 but lay lay her rest on my birthday April 9 th. Nice keep County music in your heart Forever.
you have a good ear for music Pam.....I named my only daughter after Tanya Tucker in 1980, when Tanya was tearing up the airwaves. Also 2 other trucker songs are "18 Wheels" and "Roll On"...
continued from ur list. Conway Twitty, Waylon Jennings, im 49 my 2 sons are 29 & 25, they borh listen to alot of these singers.
Red came from an era when you could turn on the radio and listen real music.
AND RED SOVINE WAS ONE OF THE GREATS !!
I hardly turn a radio on anymore.
THERE IS NOTHING TO LISTEN TO !!
Love this song , reminds me of my Dad. He drove trucks for more than 40 years. God Bless Our Truck Drivers .The ones have gone on and the ones still here.

Trucking is a hard life god bless r truckers

Brings back memories of young me and my grandfather. 70's we would travel up and down the state of California playing these trucker songs.
Me too,that was the good old days when you felt free ❗️👍
I have never been a truck driver but I sure do appreciate all you truck drivers for what you do. I don’t know how you handle all the traffic. Thank you and God bless you all !
I grew up listening to alot of trucker songs. I was raised with alot of truckers. My Uncle and 3 oldest brother are still making a living truck driving. God watch over them.
I am an old man who was a kid when this came out. Red Sovine sure made some great story telling songs. Thanks! Subscribed.
I am glad you are hear listening to some real music about real folks. I grew up on this music as my dad was a truck driver that could drive everything from long haul, log truck, and local. I love this music and like most of you that are here, I miss my dad who taught me to be a man and appreciate what we have. Miss you dad.
My was never a driver but he loved these trucking songs. Red Sovine was his favorite. This song brought back memories of my dad.
Hey 👋 how are you doing?
I drove long haul for the U.S. Army 1976, 1977 and 1978 while I was a soldier. I listened to all of his songs plus many others. This brings back so many memories. Always puts a smile on my face!

God Bless all truck drivers they keep the economy rolling at a great personal family loss to them with all the time spent on the road

Hello Timothy how are you doing today?
This song gets me every time. You can see it in your mind while he's telling the story.
I lay in my sleeper of my W900L and after 33 years of living out here on the road. I listen to this song that I have listen to as a young man. I say to myself where did all the years and miles go . Hopefully my spirit will keep rolling down the highways and back roads of this great country we call America after I'm gone . God Bless America and all the Truck Drivers of our great country.
Hello
Hello how are. You
First time hearing this since childhood. My dad was a truck driver. He passed about 5 years ago. I used to listen to these songs in his truck with him. I didn't enjoy it when I was young but would love to take one more ride with him anywhere. This song stirred a lot of emotion and memories.
I used to drive a 79 passenger Crown Coach school bus. This song brings me to tears every time.
I'm a retirement truck driver! So was dad,my oldest son, 3 of my uncles and now my grand daughter, ilove you all. And I love you Kat! You made it possible for me to make it for 45 (or so) years. I will miss you and dad till I get to my last stop!
Hey 👋 how are you doing?
this gets me every time. lost my dad to a semi crash, some drunk driver in a jacked pickup cut him off, he swirved to avoid the truck, he lost control and slammed into a pine tree, the kingpin on the flatbed trailer he was hauling broke, the trailer went through the cab, killing him instantly, I was at the convince store across the street from my house watching the news as it came on, just a mangled mess, I didn't know it was him til they said his name. I broke down right there in the middle of the store.
I am so sorry for your loss 😢😢😢
So sorry for your loss may he rest in peace.
My dad drove a truck for 45 years,all he knew from cabbage town Georgia ,he was carrying 80 thousand lbs had a massive heartattack while behind the wheel he went off the road in Covington ga,I love these truckers and everything thing they do
So sorry for your loss
Alex Hayer From Queensland Australia I lost my brother 12 years ago he fell asleep during the night driving an 8 wheel Scania paper truck veered to the left woke up and overcorrected and flipped the truck he suffocated with seat belt still fastened couldn't get it off with the truck on it's side. I knew there was something wrong when my mother called me at work. Sorry about your father I'd say you'll meet up with him on the other side.
The first time I heard this it gave me chills. It still gives me chills today.
I love this Trucking music so much as a hitchhiker through seven different countries that's not a joke and a lot of Truckers my dad was a trucker now this what I enjoy cuz I'm stuck in bed with peripheral neuropathy a couple beers some pizza and some good Tunes God bless you all
My papaw was a truck driver his handle was "Victor 7" his call sign when he was in the Army he was on the road for a better part of 15 years so I have the upmost respect for truckers and what they do and as a send off for all you truckers out there and a reference from teddy bear by Mr Sovine "May God ride with you 10-4 and goodbye" keep your rubber squealing and those rigs wheeling y'all are the backbone of this nation God bless you all !!!
Proud of you.I started driving a big rig in 1982 helped paved the way for all women. The thought I should be at home barefoot an pregnant. I already had a daughter an grand daughter. If you love you can do the work. Only a Texas wind storm stopped me.My life was spared but my driving was over an I miss it so.Have a F150 in the drive way. And A Song written about my career. Only need someone to put it on the air.Drivers are getting the praise now like never before. The Red Irish Rose
Every Truckers song!!..

For my Dad a great truck driver who loved this song. MY Dad is a driver for God now.

Hello how are you doing x
I'm only 29, and I absolutely adore this mans voice.
Michelle Shoffner I grew up on him and Several of the “Old Timers”.....👍🏻🇺🇸👍🏻🇺🇸👍🏻🇺🇸
Same here
I'm only 16 and i absolutely adore this mans voice
I always said he sounded like a Minister
I dove rig for 28 years and trucker songs are what kept me going. Those long nights full of crossroads and 357's if your an old timer you know what both them are.
Hello how are you doing ex
My papa god bless him is still with me he is a trucker and a pastor he is a great role model for me and he showed me all of these and I just got hooked on these songs
First time...my father who drove haulage all his life after a couple of years in the British MN.....he would of loved this....Love from the UK.
My grandfather passed away of a heart attack while he was waiting to be weighed. Used to ride with him all the time. He'd let me use the CB radio and talk to his friends. RIP and massive respect to all truck drivers.
I had 2 strokes about a year and a half . Then a heat stroke about 2 months ago my heart stopped twice and I'm still waiting to get back in my truck 65 years young
Love this. Lost my husband in 2021 driving a big rig hauling gas and diesel.
God bless America !! The old days are gone !! At least we have our memories !!
Hello 👋
I come from a truck driving family & even married one...theyve retired now & lost my dad not too long ago...proud to be a truckers daughter
Hello how are you? So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song
My dad is the best trucker I have ever ridden with I love when we are in the truck and we listen to C.W.McCall red sovine and Jerry Reed
Kin yer daddy back up a set of doubles on a dirt road in the snow at midnight in heavy traffic during a tornado?
Me neither!♥️
My Father (a truck driver most of his life) loved this song. It makes me think of you whenever I hear it.
I grew up loving and riding in big riggs with my brother in law he was one of the best men in my life later on I married a trucker and he himself put his own life at risk to save another, the other driver lived as did my husband I'm proud to be a truckers wife and I have to admit every single time he's on the road I pray guardian angels surround his rig. Every time I hear this song it gives me chills and makes me cry for the big guy
Hey
Drove truck for 25 years then had to come off the road to help raise my grandchildren. Truckin to this day is my second love family being my first love. Big Red got me thru many long nights. The snow, ice, rain and freezing fog were no match for his songs. Made all my runs on time and safely due largely to his songs. Few other artists compare to him. Just my opinion. Drivers keep the shinny side up and drink a cup joe for me. I miss all of you! Stay safe.
Im not a trucker but have always listen to these songs. They mean alot to me. I appreciate truckers 100%
Listening in 2024 in memory of my dad. Go 1:04 d bless the truckers and the sacrifices they make
I grew up hearing this song and when I was 14 my foster dad and his son inlaw taught me how to drive truck and that is what I ended up doing when I got older my CB handle was Peacemaker I'm 66 now and I really miss it!😢
Enjoy your life old timer. God bless
My dad loved Red's music. I grew up listening to his wonderful songs.
I just retired after 40 years behind the wheel of many types of trucks,mostly semi,s. I miss the friends i met along the way.
I hope you find comfort in knowing your dad loved you and worked hard for his family. Take Care.
Paul Anderson
I missed all the dock workers, truckers, and CB buddies when I retired.
Hello how are you
Yes 54 years old still listen to all Red Sovines songs I'm a retired trucker though
Red, was one of the best story tellers in the history of country music as far as I'm concerned!
Hello how are you doing jd
My dad taught me about this music 40+ years ago, he hauled heavy equipment, between him and his brothers, there wasn't a machine they couldn't haul or run. Rest easy dad, Big Bill Woods, and all the Woods' brothers, George, John, Ritchie, Jimmy, Bobby and Ronnie, miss all of you
Hello how are
This reminds me about my grandpa. He was a family man. He would give the shirt off his back for people. Hearing this song during makes mt eyes tear up. Even though hes been gone since 97 it still hurts. He was the cornerstone of my start on life
Hello --
That's right CB buddy's I still like this song in 2021.
It's a fav.
I was on CB Many years ago White Owl From west Yorkshire UK saying a big Hi!
Hello
Model T from central Illinois and surroundings.
Love these old songs. My Dad has the LP 24 great truck driving songs.
This song reminds me of my Brother n Law Jerry who went straight into a concrete embankment to above a drive who pulled out in front of him a station wagon full of kids .. took 3 hours to get him out of the Truck !! We almost lost him but Jerry pulled through !! Thanks to the Drs in South bend Indiana
MAKES me cry Everytime I hear this song. From the very first time as a teen to today.
Meant a LOT to me when I was driving trucks cross country.
Helped me always look for the good in people. And help when I can.
I love all of his songs, and just dawned on me that he passed away on my six birthday. I am glad my parents were always playing his songs.
My Daddy was not a Trucker but he stayed in touch with many.
Daddy was a steel mill worker who cooked for the workers.
When he would happen to be home he and I (sunshine) would spend time on the CB talking with Great men and some women for hour's. A great memory thanks for it Trucker's and Dad!!!
Hello Joseph how are you doing today?
My daddy drove from the time he was 16 to almost 60. The memories i have of riding in his cab over from the time i was 3 and listening to tunes such as this. Teucker code has changed iver the years but yes, i believe the spirits of the good truckers live on. Either thru songs or other teuckers sharing thier memories. God bless truckers ❤
My daddy was a truck driver, he passed away when l was 16, l'm 54 now and my daddy in law is a trucker, for 33 yrs!! God bless the truckers, and all the hard workin people!!❤❤❤🙂

Hope this finds you well
@@douglasbrunt2675 yes it’s, hope all is well with you?
Found Red Sovine through my Dad, John Tronetti. Watching Convoy with him as a kid. This song and "Giddy up, Go" gives me a lump in my throat every time. Love you Dad
.....and Teddy Bear!😢
Been driving for 22 years, I don't think I ever heard a better story than this out of any truck stop or from the other end of the radio
I drove cross country from Virginia to California in a Uhaul. Bad move story for another day. I put in 1,000 miles a day. I would rarely stop. One night flipping through the radio stations around 2am this song came on and tripped me out.....LOL
