Jerry Reed
East Bound and Down
[Intro]
"Cowboys and cattlemen... how do."
[Chorus]
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'
We're gonna do what they say can't be done
We got a long way to go and a short time to get there
I'm east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run
[Verse 1]
Keep your foot hard on the pedal, son, never mind them 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'll bring it back, no matter what it takes
[Chorus]
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'
We're gonna do what they say can't be done
We got a long way to go and a short time to get there
I'm east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run
[Verse 2]
Ol' Smokey's got them ears on, he's hot on your trail
He ain't gonna rest 'til you're in jail
So you gotta dodge and you gotta duck and you gotta keep that diesel truckin'
Just put that hammer down and give it hell
[Chorus]
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'
We're gonna do what they say can't be done
We got a long way to go and a short time to get there
I'm east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run
[Outro]
I am east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run
I'm east bound and down and it's okay
It's okay
It's okay
