    At the beginning definitely "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" - Charlie Daniels Band, but "Dueling Banjos" places a close second.

    HALFWAY THERE

    When the chips are down, back against the wall
    Got no more to give 'cause we gave it all
    Seems like going a distance is unrealistic
    But we're too far from the start

    So we take what comes and we keep on going
    Leaning on each other's shoulders
    Then we turn around and see we've come so far somehow

    We're halfway there, we're looking good now
    Nothing's gonna get in the way
    We're halfway there and looking back now
    I'd never thought that I'd ever say
    We're halfway there, we're halfway there
    Some people take the straight and narrow. Others the road less traveled. I just cut through the woods.

    Great tune. I sing it all the time. The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down is another "The Band" favorite that I like to sing.

    "The Rambler"~Makem and Clancey

    I'm a rambler I'm a gambler,I'm a long way from home
    and them that don't like me,can leave me alone
    I'll eat when I'm hungry,I'll drink when I'm dry
    if the moon shine don't kill me,I'll live till I die

    These Dirty Sidewalks aka "Big City" by Merl Haggard (which I used to listen to at my study carrel in the basement of NYU Law School in Greenwich Village, Manhattan, NYC!)
