Big Wheel Cannonball - Dick Curless - Cover by Jeff Cooper

Here's another "Trucker" song for the long haul OTR folks. I did all the vocals and music as usual and I believe Vaughn Horton wrote the lyrics. Like it says, this is the old Dick Curless version from 1970 or so.

@cadjunk Thank you. My Dad, brother and myself all drove OTR so doing the songs just seem natural. I put one I did a while back at the top, you may like it, the old Dave Dudley song Six Days On The Road.
