Looking for some songs about moving for a friend getting ready to make a long drive. I only got as far as the quintessential "Traveling Man", "Running Away", Pretty Lights "Finally Moving" etc. Any other suggestions are welcome, thanks in advance.

    This is one of those LP's that I think is 9/10 and I've never met anyone else who thinks it's worth a damn.....must be the fiddles.

    It may be slightly off topic. Hopefully your friend's moving is not related to the subject of this song.

    If it's not too personal, can you share the mix/compilation?

    Cadillac Assembly Line (Deet Royt Michigan-R)

    "I don't know why she's leaving,
    Or where she's going to go.
    I guess she's got her reasons,
    But I just don't want to know,
    'cos for 24 years I've been living next door to Alice." (WTFIA-R)

    "I think I'm gonna be sad,
    I think it's todaaaaaaay, yeah.
    The girl that's driving me mad
    Is going awaaaaayyyyyyy....
    She's got a ticket to ride." etc. (4-Scousers-R)

    "I'm leavin, on a jet plane
    Don't know when I'll be back again"

    "I've gotta leave old Durham town..."

    "Should I Stay Or Should I Go"

    Looking At The Front Door.

    I am sure there are some Beyonce "Doing One" tunes but I can't do that guuurl-friend neck-circle thing, so I must adhere to my lane in this case.

    If any roadtrip were merely physical, it wouldn't be worth the trip.. or the mixtape.
