Fall Joyride Songs

Windows are down
Skip the short cut
Turn off the phone and turn the radio up
On a day like today there’s only one way to go
Let’s take the long way home
— JJ Heller, Long Way Home

Driving Tennessee backroads at the changing of the seasons is one of my all-time favorite pastimes. It really forces you to slow down and see what’s unfolding all around you. Usually on a Sunday afternoon, we load up a perfect car picnic (crackers, turkey, salami, hummus, cucumbers, carrots, and drinks), or we stop by and get some to-go food to eat in the car while we drive.

I wanted to share a list of some of my favorite fall joyride songs. Roll down the windows on a sunny day, and crank these up!
