Songwriter(s)James McMurtry

"Choctaw Bingo" is a southern rock song written and performed by musician James McMurtry and appears on his album Saint Mary of the Woods and Live In Aught Three. The song is an up beat, honky-tonk narrative ballad, having no chorus, but only alternating verse and instrumental sections. The melody, tempo, and instrumentation, as well as the theme of highway driving, are very similar to the verses in Chuck Berry's 1956 hit "You Can't Catch Me," and the naming of specific towns across America is another element borrowed from Berry's oevre.
