Ever since an inventor named Paul Galvin had the bright idea of putting a radio into a car back in 1929, no roadtrip has ever been complete without tunes. And even when you're not cruising, there's no better way to get that highway feeling than cranking up music that evokes the freedom of the open road.
Check out some of these songs to include when you travel down the US 12 Heritage Trail.
King of the Road- Roger Miller
Play this song in the car on a road trip and you can't help but sing along
Mustang Sally- Wilson Pickett
Play Mustang Sally on a road trip and you just cruise down the road- no worries.
Cruisin'- Smokey Robinson
How can you not go on a road trip with Smokey? Smooth as silk Smokey crooning 'Cruise with me, baby' will get you through any traffic jam.
Runnin' Down a Dream- Tom Petty
Actually, this is probably the most perfect road trip song of all time, if the songs were judged by the lyrics.
Truckin' by The Grateful Dead
The Road Goes on Forever - Robert Earl Keen
