Musical Geography Trivia Question of the Day

WITHOUT THE AID OF A SEARCH ENGINE:
If you want to ride, you gotta ride it like you're flyin'.
Three questions:
1) What is it?
2) What are two descriptions of it?
3) Where does it go?
Extra Credit:
Name three artists who sang about it.
UPDATE:
One week, no winner, so:
1) The Rock Island Line
2) It is a mighty good road; It is the road to ride
3) Down to New Orleans
Extra Credit:
It's been recorded by quite a few artists, but the more well-known would include Lead Belly, Johnny Horton, Johnny Cash, and the Brothers Four.
Any resemblace to a gospel tune is strictly coincidental.
