Getaway Car features three of the founding members of 4 Runner: bass Jim Chapman, tenor Lee Hilliard, and lead vocalist Craig Morris, as well as baritone Michael Lusk, who replaced Billy Crittenden. Crittenden is, however, featured on the final track, a demo version of Diamond Rio's 1994 single "Love a Little Stronger" (which he also co-wrote). This demo was recorded by the original members of 4 Runner in 1994, while Diamond Rio's version can be found on their 1994 album Love a Little Stronger.
The album's title track (and lead-off single) has been recorded by several other artists: Susan Ashton on her 1999 album Closer, Dakota Moon on their 2002 album A Place to Land, The Jenkins on their 2004 self-titled debut album, and Hall & Oates on their 2004 album Do It for Love. Both The Jenkins and Hall & Oates released their renditions as singles. Besides the title track, "Forrest County Line" and "Ragged Angel" were released from this album as well, although of the three singles, "Forrest County Line" was the only one to chart.
"God, Family and Country" was previously cut (and co-written) by Craig Morgan on his 2003 album I Love It, from which it was released as a single. 4 Runner provided backing vocals on his version as well. "Shower the People" is a cover of a James Taylor song, originally found on his 1976 album In the Pocket. Finally, "The House at the End of the Road" is a re-recording of a song which 4 Runner originally released on their self-titled debut album in 1995.

Famous quotes containing the word contents:
“If one reads a newspaper only for information, one does not learn the truth, not even the truth about the paper. The truth is that the newspaper is not a statement of contents but the contents themselves; and more than that, it is an instigator.”
—Karl Kraus (1874–1936)
“Yet to speak of the whole world as metaphor
Is still to stick to the contents of the mind
And the desire to believe in a metaphor.
It is to stick to the nicer knowledge of
Belief, that what it believes in is not true.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“To be, contents his natural desire;
He asks no Angel’s wing, no Seraph’s fire;
But thinks, admitted to that equal sky,
His faithful dog shall bear him company.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
