No. 4: Superman Jimmie (NASCAR Square Dance) by Marty Falle

How many people can say they have their very own square dance song? NASCAR’s Jimmie Johnson can. Marty Falle and his band Dingletown from Northern Ohio wrote Superman Jimmie (NASCAR Square dance). There is something to be said about a square dance that goes into great detail about six-time champion Jimmie Johnson’s career from the crash that nearly killed him at Watkin’s Glen to racing against Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart.

The song is on Falle’s album Redneck Roadrunner and was released in September of 2011, coincidentally the same year that fellow driver Tony Stewart, whom is described in the song with “slouched and smirkin’ behind the wheel, self proclaimed king of the automobile, won it all in 02 and 05, say what you will but “Old Smoke” could drive” felled what was called Jimmie Johnson legacy by winning his third NASCAR championship. The song is catchy and despite your feelings about Johnson you might just find yourself randomly singing about “Superman Jimmie, from El Cajon.”
