West Bound And Down chords - Jerry Reed

Jerry Reed Lyrics




Chorus:
G                    A
West bound and down, eighteen wheels arollin',
C                   D                 G
We're gonna do what they say can't be done
G                                A
We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there
C                    D                G
I'm west bound, just watch ol' Bandit run


          Em                          C
Keep your foot hard on the pedal, Son nevermind them brakes
       A                  B               Em
Let it all hang out cause we got a run to make
                                             C
The boys are thirsty in Atlanta, and there's beer in Texarcana
          A                               B
And we'll bring it back no matter what it takes
   

Chorus:
G                    A
West bound and down, eighteen wheels arollin',
C                   D                 G
We're gonna do what they say can't be done
G                                A
We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there
C                    D                G
I'm west bound, just watch ol' Bandit run

Ol' Smokey's got them ears on and he's hot on your trail
A             B                   Em
He aint gonna rest 'til you're in jail
                                   
So you got to dodge 'im and you got to duck 'im
           C
You got to keep that diesel truckin'
     A                                B
Just put that hammer down and give it hell
