16. Truck Drivin' Man (Lynyrd Skynyrd, ronnie vanzant -- ed king)
Well he’s truckin’ on down from memphis
Cruisin’ down to new orleans
Tonight he sleeps alone with a cajun queen
Well there’s smoke from the stacks a-blowin’
And he don’t care where he’s goin’
The only time he feels right is when he’s rollin’
He’s got roadmaps in his hand
Lord, drivin’ just as hard as he can
Trying to dodge them scales and the man
Well I’m talkin’ about
Truck drivin’ man

20. Taxman (George Harrison)
If you drive a car, I'll tax the street
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold I'll tax the heat
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet

Taxman!
Cos I'm the taxman, yeah I'm the taxman

21. Tambourine Man (Bob Dylan)

Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

22. Secret Agent Man (P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri)
There's a man who leads a life of danger.
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger
With every move he makes,
Another chance he takes.
Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow.

Secret Agent Man.
Secret Agent Man.

27. Pretty Fly For A Rabbi (Weird Al Yankovic)
Our temple's had a fair share of rabbis in the past
But most of 'em were nudniks and none of 'em would last
But our new guy's real kosher, I think he'll do the trick
I tell ya, he's to dies for - he really knows his shtick

Whatever happened to the Chainsaw Juggler?
He was a good friend of mine.
Nobody knows; they found him alone

37. Does "Blue Collar Man" count?
Give me a job, give me security
Give me a chance to survive
I’m just a poor soul in the unemployment line
My God, I’m hardly alive

My mother and father, my wife and my friends
I see them laugh in my face
But I’ve got the power, and I’ve got the will
I’m not a charity case

I’ll take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my eye to the keyhole
If it takes all that to be just what I am
I’m gonna be a blue collar man
