How many of the places listed in this song (or lyrics below) have you been to?

Question

This mf was flowing like fck! Still sexy haha! Shit I’ve only been to Louisana and Houston but hoping to add Tampa, Nashville, Colorado, Toronto, and Crater Lake to the list. Now if I would’ve asked have you dated people from the cities in this song, then my list would be much longer 😂

For those too lazy to watch the awesome video, HERE ARE THE LYRICS

I was totin' my pack along the dusty Winnemucca road
When along came a semi with a high an' canvas-covered load
"If you're goin' to Winnemucca, Mack, with me you can ride"
And so I climbed into the cab, and then I settled down inside
He asked me if I'd seen a road with so much dust and sand
And I said, "Listen, I've traveled every road in this here land"
(Chorus)
I've been to Reno, Chicago, Fargo, Minnesota, Buffalo, Toronto, Winslow, Sarasota, Wichita, Tulsa, Ottawa, Oklahoma, Tampa, Panama, Mattawa, La Paloma, Bangor, Baltimore, Salvador, Amarillo, Tocapillo, Baranquilla, and Perdilla
(Chorus again)
I've been to Boston, Charleston, Dayton, Louisiana, Washington, Houston, Kingston, Texarkana, Monterey, Faraday, Santa Fe, Tallapoosa, Glen Rock, Black Rock, Little Rock, Oskaloosa, Tennessee to Tennesse Chicopee, Spirit Lake, Grand Lake, Devils Lake, Crater Lake for Pete's sake
(Chorus again)
I've been to Louisville, Nashville, Knoxville, Ombabika, Schefferville, Jacksonville, Waterville, Costa Rica
Pittsfield, Springfield, Bakersfield, Shreveport, Hackensack, Cadillac, Fond du Lac, Davenport, Idaho, Jellico, Argentina, Diamantina,
Pasadena, Catalina, see what I mean
(Chorus again)
I've been to Pittsburgh, Parkersburg, Gravelburg, Colorado, Ellensburg, Rexburg, Vicksburg, El Dorado
Larimore, Atmore, Haverstraw, Chatanika, Chaska, Nebraska, Alaska, Opelika, Baraboo, Waterloo, Kalamazoo, Kansas City, Sioux City, Cedar City, Dodge City what a pity
(Chorus again)

Well now you have mastered the johnny cash version you can try the original (Australian) version!

I think it was written in 1959 by Geoff Mack and first sung in 1962 Lucky Starr. Faster!

I could only get some of the names and needed the lyrics in text. Out of the 90 I have only been to 12 but I was born in one so I claim double points for that.

Most of the ones in the US, maybe all of them. Most of the ones in Canada also, but not Toronto.

This should give some idea. This is a scan of an old map that has been all over the country with me. This is one section in the mountain states. I've colored in most of the routes, but a few are missing. The rest of the country is much the same. If you don't recognize it, that's Colorado in the center with parts of the surrounding states.

Maybe I should write a song. At one time I wanted to write a travel book for most scenic road trips. I've forgotten too much now to do it now though.

NamerOfStars · Answer

All of them- except, believe it or not, Toronto. That's assuming you mean Canada, of course; I actually HAVE been to Toronto, Illinois, and for just this purpose (it's not exactly a thriving town).

Incidentally, this song is the reason why I always scoff at people who dismiss Billy Joel by saying "A list is not a song". I can agree with that idea, but NOBODY said it while Cash was still alive. He'd've whupped 'em solid; I'm pretty sure even *I* could take Billy in a fistfight.
