QUEENSRŸCHE's official website reports:
"Episode 0016 - 'If I Were King' - Geoff Tate explains the meaning behind Track #8 on American Soldier.“There’s a story I was told, a solider came back from the Vietnam era / conflict. He described being really unconfortable with staying in one place. So he packed up everything he had in a car, and spent several years just driving… drove, 12 hours a day, until he ran out of gas."
