1. Lou Rawls
2. Blues Magoos
3. David Lee Roth (spanish language version)

Wrong! its Edgar Winter and the White Trash from Roadwork!

The Nashville Teens version is best. Everybody knows that.

I don't "know" that.

If Ween did "Tobacco Road", that would be the best version.

Well, now ya do.

the best version is by 68 comeback. second-best version is by chris stamey, cleverly retitled "get a job", on the staggeringly great "it's a wonderful life" album.

Blues Magoos, Edgar Winter, Spooky Tooth.

You'll never find a version a fine as Lou Rawls'.

Spooky Tooth's is mighty fine

― Joe (Joe), Friday, 4 April 2003 21:35 (twenty-two years ago)

I second Rare Earth.

Nashville Teens over Blues Magoos, clearly- the Magoos sound affected.

Did Robert Mitchum do a cover of this, or just Thunder Road?

every version of this song is good. the orig. by john d. loudermilk is nice. also a real good version by a girl named (i think) roberta wolfson, it's on 1 of those "girls in the garage" albums.
