Classic Country Fans: Can you pick out the songs in the following story, then na!
Question: BONUS: there's a line from a song in there somewhere. Identify that one and the ORIGINAL artist, and you'll vie for the prize.
It was four in the morning when the country bumpkin rolled into Saginaw, Michigan in his '57 Chevrolet. A snowflake or two drifted from the sky, which he knew happened all the time between there and Detroit city this time of year. He'd been six days on the road; what he needed was a good hot meal and some sleep. He pulled into an all-night cafe', went in, ordered and ate, and told the waitress he'd just have a cup of coffee, then he'd go. She was happy to oblige. After that, a few hours of shut-eye in an old motel room, then another tank of gas and back on the road again.

The bonus could be either one of these:

The phrase "old motel room" also comes from David Allan Coe's Bluegrass Morning
By the way this was a lot of fun and brought back memories as well as making my brain function.

Six days on the road By soyer brown
1. 4 In The Morning by Faron Young
2. '57 Chevrolet by I FORGET!!!
3. Country Bumpkin by Don Williams
4. Saginaw, Michigan by Lefty Frizzell
5. All The Time by Hank Thompson and others
6. Detroit City by Bobby Bare
7. Six Day On The Road by Moe Bandy
8. On The Road Again by Willie Nelson
I think the hidden song is 6 Days On The Road by Moe Bandy. (Also recorded by others).
Six Days On The Road - Dave Dudley ?
Everyone missed the "another tank of gas" line...
Its "Me and You and a Dog Named Boo"
I prefer the Stonewall Jackson version but I think it was done by Lobo too...
Six Days On The Road not sure of the artist as its an old song think it might have been one of the earlier singers
Hank Snow comes to mind
"Country Bumpkin" - Cal Smith
"Saginaw, Michigan" - Lefty Frizzell
"Detroit City" - Pam Tillis
"Six Days on the Road" - Steve Earle
"On the Road Again" - Willie Nelson
