"Sometimes I feel like my wheels ain't touchin' the ground".... That hits hard everytime.
I think some songwriters wait a lifetime to write a line that good.
Heard that!
"I've been so lonely, I've made Hank Williams look like a a party of five.
I always thought it was "Marty McFly" instead of "a party of five." LOL
Such a brilliant line.
I thought it was barny fife
@@Orbison74 definitely Barney fife
Possibly my favorite lyric of all time
The cello player’s low key smiles are wonderful. And the black hair guitar player’s topping off the verses are so good. Great stuff.
My dad's been a long haul truck driver pretty much all his working life. He just turned 75 the other day and very next day took a load to South Dakota. That same day this song appeared on my Spotify recommended list, and it just grabbed me. Mom passed away a few years back and they stuck together like glue. So when I heard the line "always thought she would be there at the end of the line" I welled up with tears. Fred, you just got a new fan! Simple song, yet so beautiful.
god dang that's deep. I gotta stop reading these damn comments!
Makes me happy
Another example of Fred's ability to capture real life and soul in a song. He should be way more famous than he is. His songwriting stands up to the best anywhere anytime. He is a modern day Woody Guthrie out there constantly touring bringing his songs to the world
I hope he's living comfortably at least.
Best songwriter I've ever seen. Hands down.
Does anyone else think Fred was a driver? I first heard this song a couple weeks ago and I can hear the miles in his voice. I'm not ashamed to admit I cried.. I have over million miles in a truck but I'm sick now and can't drive. But this song takes me back. I love it so much!
I don't think he was. As far as I know, he owned a flower greenhouse / wholesale operation, but of course, he's driven his tour bus across North America many, many times.
@@olafbigandglad he sure did get this song right. I sure do miss the highway. I got sick and can't drive anymore.
Yeah I ran with him Texas to Alaska. We ran hard. Him in a old k wobbler me a freight shaker.
1 and a half million miles here. Retired now and don’t miss I-80 in the winter one bit.
@@tomcoryell I just saw that even I-10 in Louisiana was closed and covered in ice 2 days ago.
The whole band is singing... whether mic'd or not - can't blame them. FRED RULES!
I drive a truck and this song is spot on
Man isn't it! I love it so much I started crying
I always thought she’d be there at the end of the line... me too buddy, me too.
Yep. I totally understand
Holy crap I can relate to this song for so many reasons I just don't know why I've never heard it before now
Lol same here. I came here to listen to 18 wheels and found this.
Repeat, repeat, repeat
Perfect song for our Trucker Convoy Protest to Ottawa this week. It's making history here in Canada. They are on way from every single province and US. Followers and members from all over the World.
They started this because our Government wants to make vaccine mandate for them to keep their jobs. Absolutely BS.
This seriously is all over the news stations everywhere. If you join group Convoy to Ottawa 2022 the videos of the Convoy from all over and millions of supporters . It's seriously the biggest thing ever in Canadian History. Check it out
love the piss jug reference. rip rayyyyyyyyyyy
Not many will get rip Ray
@@josephthyer6097 im glad at least one did!
fuckin way of the road
Way of the road, buddy.
@@bobbysandiego the fuckin way she goes bud
This song should reach everyone. No matter what you do or accomplish it’s hard to be #1. All that speed you should be the highest person on earth where nobody matters and still feels like I can’t feel. It’s deep to me.
Girl in the middle playing guitar is the glue of this mix
to anybody who's been "high centered"...it's a helpless feelin'.....
Got hung up in a Ryder moving van once….teeter taught her.
There ain't nothing like high speed chicken feed to chase that ole white line
Beep beep cluck cluck here comes another chicken truck!!! Rod knocka baaaby!!!
Ain’t no feeling like that chicken truck mobiling!!
@@bm7301 high speed chicken feed and magic toothpicks lol ROD KNOCKAAAAA
Twin sticks and toothpicks, c’aaamon!
This song is so true for us old school truckers. This generation has no idea about west coast turns and back row parties and chasing the black dog down the highway. Those days are gone forever
Love that old Kent four pickup guitar Tiff is playing. I had one of these as my first guitar in 1965.
It is Roger! Love to you all .... my wheels have not touched ground for a while ... yet right now, I am walking on sponges ! xoxo
This must be the best version of this song I've heard. Its hard to listen to, but oh so captivating. In that rubberneck freeway crash sort of a way.
Hmm the type of music I grew up on. Wonder if my dad knew who you were. RIP Leroy McCabe ❤❤
Greatest living songwriter as of 11/26/19. Hard to beat.
Still the best late Nov 2022!
Bad ass… song is as true as true can be. Hits me right in my heart
As a retired Trucker,as well a Fredhead love this song,
Im not even close to truck driving, but damn this song touches my soul
Why haven't I heard of this guy before? Dang good music and sangin
Insane how good this song is.
Ok I just discovered this song I hear it on tiktok now I love this song lol 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Great song great performance. they sound really good.
Coming out of Montreal 3 AM on a friday morning trying to make Halifax by closing. We all been there eh?
Are you in the Convoy to Ottawa this week?
It is absolutely the biggest thing in Canadian History.
Trudeau must gooooo
I miss the old days 😢
Well said skunk1955. that sums up Fred's musical charm. I have seen him live only twice but there will be lots more i hope.
Yes, I am a Fred Head..
beautiful stuff ... just love this ...
Love this song!!! Hauling cattle we use a lot of parts of this song lmao!!
I LOVE that you have BETH HART in your playlist. I found her a few years back and fell in love with her omg that voice. Skynyrd has always been my band but she cones close to taken it lol
In a sane world, Beth and Fred would both be huge stars. You have good taste.
I'm a trucker ( not a truck driver)
how he knows this?
I'm amazed
So true. I don't think Fred knows how much this song hits home.
Don't drive a truck, but can totally relate as well.
legend
Awesome!
Bloody hell, Fred, I like your band !!! ;-)))
Been sober for years. Thank God! Trust me, you don't want to live this song.
Wow.....Great Song...I just found this ...Takes Me Back In Time...Trucker Speed Benzedrine Percocet Amphetamine ,,,Black 🖤 Beauties ....I Miss Those Days....I do . No I don't Wanna relive those days...But sure is Nice to reminisce... Peace ✌️ Love and 18 Wheelz to All
Remember how revolvers used to taste?
And magic toothpicks

I can sure relate I love his songs how is that bus working I have hauld it from miami to edmonton for you the best load I have ever done ! For it has change the way I see thing keep up the work
If that's Roger Marin, he does not look too happy ... love you fred
This is how it used be run hard and west coast turns and the back row a the truck stop in Barstow. 100 MPH, no log books, just channel 19 on the CB and real county music
Trucker speed to all of you hope you get back to you’re family safe brothers and sisters hope you’re all safe and loaded up and trukin
It just struck me, this song is just Wagon Wheel.
Has Bob figured it out yet?
Is Bob into suing people?
Great song though. Seriously, I love it. My friend Anthony S plays it a lot and I learnt it from listening to him and here on you tube.. Funny how it took a while for the
Wagon Wheel thing to hit me, but now I cannot unhear it.
AAAHHH! It is… I’ve been playing this song for months and never put that together. Pretty close. Now it’s in my head.😅
Wouldn’t mind hearing the rest or more of your story
This a great song truck driver or not
Love the female guitar players.
Fuckin' right man, god damn
Is that a Kay guitar Fred's playing?
OMG WHERE IS THE REPEAT BUTTON ❤
just seen u guys in gananoque march 10th i have to say ur bass player is fuckin goergeos!!
I second that.lol bet he thinks so too.
Is he still alive
Yes
Why are there three guitarist? This ain’t Skynard.
That's...a joke..the Amy mentioned
Kuh
Could the girl on the left look any less enthusiastic?
she don't need to show emotion...that's his wife!
I’m a truck driver for 15 years now this is the old days he’s talking about I wish I was a trucker then
