"He had a smile as wide as dixie, he was southern to the bone
He lived in Carolina, but the racetrack was his home
Talladega, Daytona, Watkins Glen, Rockingham, Charlotte, Bristol, Pennslyvania, any
place NASCAR ran with 500 miles of black top with a gearshift and a tac
Dale made Sunday Thunder as he roared around the track"
....Charlie Daniels, 2001
