"Girl On The Billboard" #96 (#1 Country) 6/26/1965

A #1 country hit in May '65 that just cracked the Hot 100 by Del Reeves. It's a tale of highway lust about a trucker slogging down old US 66 each day between Chicago and St. Louis. Alas, the interstate put an end to those days. I kinda like getting off the interstate once in a while...

Essentially a parody of highway lust, as the "girl" was simply a painting based on composite feminine features. And created and painted by a dude no less.
