G'day all,

Hey I don't know what I am doing in a thread about "The Pickup Truck Song" ... but I do have a cassette recording of a BBC concert where the fellow (a Yank, of course,) tells of deciding to write the perfect C & W song , with mum, dogs, farms, prison-(escape)s, trucks, trains and death. The result is the song sort of quoted above (and he says: "Serves me right!".

f nobody else comes up with it, I will dredge the depths of the old cassette rack and see if I can find it.

Regards,

Bob Bolton
