East Bound and Down (from the Motion Picture "Smokey and the Bandit") - Jerry Reed

East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'

Are we gonna do what they say can’t be done

We’ve got a long way to go and a short time to get there

I’m east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run

Keep your foot hard on the pedal

Son, never mind the brakes

Let it all hang out 'cause we got a run to make

The boys are thirsty in Atlanta

And there’s beer in Texarkana

We’re gonna make it no matter what it takes

East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'

Are we gonna do what they say can’t be done

We’ve got a long way to go and a short time to get there

I’m east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run

East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'

Are we gonna do what they say can’t be done

We’ve got a long way to go and a short time to get there

I’m east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run

Ol' Smokey’s got them ears on

And he’s hot on your trail

He ain’t gonna rest 'til you’re locked up jail

So you’ve got to dodge 'em and you’ve got to duck 'em

You’ve got to keep that diesel truckin'

Just put that hammer down and give it hell

East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'

Are we gonna do what they say can’t be done

We’ve got a long way to go and a short time to get there

And I’m east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run

Watch ol' Bandit run, watch ol' Bandit run

Watch ol' Bandit run, watch ol' Bandit run

Watch ol' Bandit run, watch ol' Bandit run
