The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

Charlie Daniels' "Road Dogs"-- Part 2: "We're Road Dogs, Road Dogs"

Sure enjoyed listening to this song on Galax, Virginia's WBRF, 98.1 FM, Home of Classic Country.  Sure like the internet for that.  Plus, that great You Tube where I listened to the song many times.  If I ever had a radio show, this would definitely be one that I play.  After all, it has my name.

Anyway, the song is a tale of all the things that can go wrong when giving concerts out on the road.

Some of the words:

Pulling out of Woodstock heading down to Little Rock

Chorus

We're Road Dogs, Road Dogs
Burning up the interstate
Hot and Wild Southern Style
That crowd in Memphis just won't wait
From midnight till dawn
We're rolling down the highway
Heading for another town
Road Dogs, Road Dogs
We sure get around.

Road Dogs is also the name of the album it was on and Charlie Daniels wrote most of the songs, including this one.  It was released in 2000.

Thanks, Charlie.  --RoadDog
