''Transamerica'' is the original soundtrack, on the Nettwerk America label, of the 2005 film ''Transamerica'' starring Felicity Huffman and Kevin Zegers. The album consists of songs from various artists in the country and bluegrass genres. ==Travelin' Thru== The song "Travelin' Thru" was written and performed by Dolly Parton. It was nominated for the Academy Award, Golden Globe, and Grammy Award for Best Song from a Movie. This song is about a journey on the road to find home and identity. Parton references "The Wayfaring Stranger (song)" and "I Am a Pilgrim", both examples of American folk music about the search for identity on the road. Parton said she wrote the song because of her status as an outsider and her belief that "It's all right to be who you are."〔Peter Cooper. ''Parton's Plea For Tolerance.'' USA Today. 23 February 2006〕 She wrote the song on her tour bus in one day. In 2006, the song was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Song.

The award went to "It's Hard out Here for a Pimp" by Paul Beauregard, Jordan Houston, and Cedric Coleman. The song was also nominated for the Golden Globe for Best Original Song and for the Broadcast Film Critics Association for Best Song, though it won neither award.
