Chevy Van (song)
"Chevy Van" is a 1973 song written and sung by Sammy Johns with instrumental backing provided by L.A. session musicians from the Wrecking Crew. The song was a hit single in the United States and Canada in 1975, reaching #5 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart, and becoming a million seller. It was played primarily on AM Top40 stations in the 70s; later re-recording were done in a country vein.
It details how an unnamed male driver picks up an unnamed female, who then proceeds to eventually seduce him into a one-night stand in the back of his Chevrolet Van. At the end he drops her off "in a town that was so small, you could throw a rock from end to end. A dirt road mainstreet, she walked off in bare feet", and laments "It's a shame I won't be passing through again." The song struck a chord with listeners in the sexually liberated early 1970s when Johns released it.
In more recent years, country artists Eric Church, Waylon Jennings and Sammy Kershaw and rock artists Joe Pernice and Fu Manchu have each released covers of the song. The original 1973 version was also featured in the 1977 film ''The Van''. Unlike Sammy Johns' original chorus that opens "Cause like a princess she was laying there...", the aforementioned artists sing "Cause like a picture she was laying there...".
