Scott Miller did an album called Citation, and the song Freedom Was a
Stranger, mentions the Citation in the song.

If you like the folk/americana music, hit the link. It takes you to a page
that has all his music on there for free streaming listening. The second
album down is Citation (2006) and play the first song. I consider Scott a
friend, as well as a great musician. He was originally a history teacher, so
many of his songs hold true stories. For those of you that may recall The
V-Roys, or the house band for The Blue Collar Comedy Show, Scott was
influential in both of those, as well as playing with Steve Earle for a
short while.
