East Bound And Down Lyrics

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
Watch ol' Bandit run, watch ol' Bandit run
Watch ol' Bandit run, watch ol' Bandit run
Watch ol' Bandit run, watch ol' Bandit run

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
