#109 Eighteen Wheels And A Dozen Roses – Kathy Mattea (1988)


This list of the 50 Best Trucking Songs of All Time has “Eighteen Wheels And A Dozen Roses” at #7. Personally, I’d put it at the top, but of course I’m not actually a trucker.
 
I didn’t hear it until years after it was released; I was driving somewhere on the eastern shore of Maryland and for some reason had a “classic country” station on the radio. (AM, of course.) I’m not a fan of most country music, but this is one that helps to redeem the genre.
