[MontyVeda]

Err, does this one qualify? It is a "ship" - the Starship Enterprise

It qualifies more than all the car songs that folks have put in... at least you read the thread title properly

I'm surprised that this hasn't been suggested?




And, neither, even more surprisingly, has the thread titles eponymous song




A bit of Dwight

CCR Proud Mary...

It had crossed my mind to include it, I wonder if it partially influenced Terry Pratchett, in the 'Snuff' book?

The Banana Boat Song Harry Belafonte

The version, & accompanying scene in BeetleJuice, always makes me smile

Night Mail

Again, one I considered
