Amazing pick up truck song. JJW my life growing up. Miss U BAD!

[@ktpinnacle]

When I moved to Austin in 1981, the first concert I saw was JJW at Gruene Hall. Second row. Fight broke out right in front of us. JJW just kept playing away. Our group put our feet up on the seats that were thrown around. Quite a night.

[@jvigaroo7478]

about the same time. Went to Bevo’s b-day party. JJW was killing it!!

[@ktpinnacle]

@@jvigaroo7478 that was you in that fight!?! 😁

[@michellediehl8309]

Brought a tear to my eyes. I miss those times

[@williamjames6624]

Well you make a good point in your comment,Hello how are you doing 💕👋👋👋👋👋

[@bradroberson6359]

This song brings back memories of Saturdays with my Pawpaw in his pickup truck. He passed away last year, this song always brings a smile with those memories.

[@bbrcummins1984]

And now we have Bro country SMDH

[@eblamo]

So sad to hear of his passing. This has always been one of my favorites of his.

[@FarmallDoctor]

still driving my old '79 Chev... new trucks just don't feel the same. Glad to hear I'm not the only one who likes to cruise on a moonit night with the lights off! Thanks, Jerry

[@PenguinDuber]

Used to play this song when I was a morning show guy in Western, PA (WLMI) - folks would toot and wave as they passed the front window.........brings back many memories - the Jerry Jeff is a great Egg - thanks for making me smile and bringing back good memories!

[@tomward2963]

RIP Jerry Jeff you will be missed. Great singer and songwriter.

[@jodyvance4114]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@jamesadams7212]

Whenever I am running errands in my pickup truck, I have to have this song on. I don't have kids with me but I do have my dog.

[@iankavanagh4250]

I was privileged to be able to hangout with Jerry and Susan in Belize often. RIP my friend

[@haiyoabrubaker1812]

RIP JJW. I used to have an old 83 F150 that my kids and I would sing this to in. No A/C, so we used to have the windows down. They're all older and moved to other places across this nation of ours, but ahhh, the memories. Listening to this brings a tear to my eyes. Thank you for all the great memories.

[@jeffmostrom89]

I can relate to this song . Helping my grandparents on their farm . Learn to drive 52 Chevy pickup truck 😊 Fun memories .

[@jondoe888i]

What a treasure! Seeing Jerry Jeff online is like getting a big hug!

[@jem3398]

My grandpa had a big ol' light blue Dodge pick-up that we rode around in...including trips to the county dump. Then stop for a "frosty" (soft serve ice cream) on the way back to his house. Miss my grandpa ("Pops") and that ol' truck. Love this song!

How can one not smile listening to this song?

[@charliehalsted1093]

Plain simple song that resonates with so many people.

[@jameselkin4687]

[@stewartfenton7660]

There's no hidden meaning with Jerry Jeff. So simple,so memorable. I still can't picture how he got sick and left us.

[@candelise]

Love this song! Can't help smiling when I hear it. RIP Jerry.

[@gwynnielsen5081]

There is nothing like a good pick-up truck song. The truest American image is a pick-up truck.

[@thomasmorgan2697]

Always think of this song when I'm in my 54chev truck first heard him in 76 in a bar in fort St John been listening to him ever since will always miss his voice

[@PsykoSmiley]

Just heard He has moved on to the next world. This was my favorite song of his. Was lucky enough to see him play a small bar in my town. The kind where you can approach him and get an autograph after the show. Great show and a nice man.

[@bwilliams463]

Grandpa and I went everywhere in his old blue Ford. My favorite times were when we'd go up to the flea market on Saturdays; I'd stay over at his house Friday nights so we could get up and get going by 5:30 AM, when the sun was just crawling over the pasture and the grass was so wet with dew that you'd be soaked to the ankles after just a few yards walking in it. But I digress. Bless JJW and this song for always bringing back those happy memories.

[@davidlund3420]

Lord I miss him, reminds me so much of my grandfather and me.

[@frankwhite8254]

This song brings back good memories. Love it

[@douglasstudeman5531]

Another Great Song of His.God Bless You.

[@jessemartin4332]

Riding with my dad in that old green late 70's F350. Sometimes to the rodeo. Sometimes to the grocery store. Sometimes to the wilderness of northern Utah with a 3-horse bumper-pull trailer for a weekend riding the high country. Thanks dad. 🐎💨

[@OldHippieMatt]

Saw JJW first in 72 at Santa Fe amphitheater with Lost Gonzo band,,and 2 dozen shows since..Jerry Jeff presents his music to us with unabashed feeling...he's Layin his Life on the Line..of all the genre of music from Floyd to Skynyrd I can most relate to Scamp Walker..he has influenced my life in a very positive way...so here's to the King of Texas music!! Cheers JJ !!

[@fox579]

Impossible to listen to this song without a smile on my face

[@jeannieeddins7829]

This song always makes me smile and I am so thankful for Jerry and his wonderful music!

how can anyone say that is not the greatest song ever

[@JohnDavis-oo4ll]

Reminds me of growing up in south west Colorado. Pop would say get in the truck...I did not know if we were going for a couple hours or a couple days. And I never got bored with all the roads we travelled down. Miss my pop...and his old truck.

[@stecklein7]

This song just makes me SMILE. Despite going through personal hell. I can still l smile and giggle a bit to this song. God Bless Jerry Jeff. Thanks darling. For picking up my spirits.

Oh thank you Matt. I know we all go through rough patches at times and more than others sometimes. Just need a "pick me up" pick up. Truck. Song. LOL

[@goat2558]

I'm listening to Jerry Jeff Walker while traveling down memory way on google maps. I'd much rather be back there in south east New Mexico riding around with my grand pa. Just 2 desperado waiting on a train. I couldn't wait to get out of there but wish there was a way that I could go back to those days.

[@july211985]

i cry when he talks about his grandpa cause thats what we use to do exactly what we use to do when he died i was in camp working never talked to him a month prior im 26 when he talks about being with his kids it makes me feel better time to make me a family and sober up

[@lllfff3359]

JJW brightens up my day, r.i.p.

[@doughesson]

This really hits you when you remember that the road you are on didn't exist back when you were having similar fun times in an old pick up.

[@clarencewood6620]

Ain't that the truth

"Life is nothing more then attitude and timing." - Jerry Jeff

[@robertjohnston3117]

WE WILL MISS YOU JJ. RIP BROTHER!

[@DNLMarketing]

I love this song. My two kids love doing this, we ride around in the pick up struck from Luckenback and Sister Dale. Too much fun, seen JJW and the Gonzo Compadraes for years, years, I was 13 the first time I, and 51 last! Tried and True! Got married in Belize! True fan, Im the fan that sings along with every song, in the wrong note! Opera House in Galveston to most of our famous ball rooms around Texa! I take my hat off to Scamp!! Keep on keeping on! Life is Good!

[@LeskoBrandon2x]

I am crying listening to this. This was my childhood. My dad used to let me drive (although I’m not sure it’s as right to say he let me drive as it would be to say he *made* me drive) while he sipped wild turkey and chased it with a 20 ounce Coca Cola until one or the other was empty. Then he would either stop at a gas station for more coke or the liquor store for more wild turkey. We were in an old Chevy S10. Those were some of the best days of my life. Times were simpler back then, hitting old dirt roads as a 9 year old kid while my dad blasted JJW and got shit faced drunk. Then keeping the secret from my mother that I drove his drunk ass around 😂 He is now 11 years sober but this song and others by JJW still remind us of those carefree (or so we imagined) summer nights in Bowdon, Georgia. RIP JJW. Love, Me and Dad

[@richardphariss4197]

I was at this recording sometime in the late 80's. It was either during his birthday bash or later. Not sure. We took three chartered buses from Austin to Gruene Texas. Three buses each with a keg of Shiner beer and a person to serve it up to you. Fantabulous.

[@johnireland6301]

Rest In Peace. So missed and so loved.

[@texpenn1]

Here we call it "The Hondo Hill" So several (20 30?) years back I was out in Luckenbach having a few & picking some songs. I decided hit the Hondo hill & go for the record, imaginary as it might be. With a fair buzz I hit the top of the hill, radio blasting & eased my old giant suburban into neutral. A few minutes later started slowing down & got into the smaller hills still coasting along. Then I caught a smell like burning clutch or hot engine. The moral of the story is..... dont EVER put an auto in neutral with the cruise control on! LOLOLOL That old suburban was never the same.

I first saw JJW at Billy Bob's Texas in 1982. I went by myself, and was lucky enough to get an odd front row seat at the box office. I got a little drunk, and before the show was over, JJW cussed me out from the stage. I felt like I had arrived. Then, in '84, I saw him again at the Palomino Club in North Hollywood. I wanted him to sing TOO OLD TO CHANGE, but he refused. I got a little drunk, and before the show was over, JJW cussed me out from the stage. Having been cussed out in two states probably isn't a record, but it was a lot of fun!
