Girl on the Billboard
"Girl on the Billboard" is a 1965 single released by American country music singer Del Reeves. The novelty song was Reeves' fourth entry on the U.S. country chart and his only No. 1 single. "Girl on the Billboard" spent two weeks at No. 1 and a total of 20 weeks on the chart, in addition to reaching No. 96 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and has become one of many country standards about lust.
==The Song's Story==
The song is about a truck driver who falls in love with a picture of a beautiful young woman, whose scantilly clad likeness is plastered as part of a roadside billboard advertisement along Route 66. The truck driver, who drives a daily freight route from Chicago to St. Louis along the highway where the billboard is located, begins fantasizing about having a relationship with the woman. He also takes note at how many traffic accidents have occurred near the billboard (supposedly due to motorists becoming distracted by the billboard).
Early one morning (4:45 AM), while his diesel idles nearby, the trucker knocks on the door of the artist who painted the billboard and (presumably) asks for the model's contact information. The painter curtly tells the trucker that the "girl wasn't real" and that he'd "better get the (censored) on his way." (An electric guitar riff is used in place of the profanity). Disillusioned at his fantasy being ruined, the trucker moans that along the highway, "You'll find tiny pieces of my heart scattered every which a way."
