@TheBandit77TransAm This song is great. It just makes you sit down and think about life. Thanks man for putting it up.

[TheBandit77TransAm]

you're very welcome. umm yeah i guess it sorta does make you do that. That, and the fact that it's from an awesome movie.

That minor fall with the nice lead line in this song gives me chills every time...

@hgou812 actually, you got that backwards, the 78 trans am has a diamond pattern and longer front fenders than the 77, there was a special package in early 78 that used a few left over parts from 77, i know because i have a real 77 that i have been restoring for 12 years now

[hgou812]

@hgou812 the only difference 77 had a diamond pattern in the grill 78 was honey comb pattern in the grill

[hgou812]

@mrvideoguy1972 We still have his music and those wonderful appearances in movies on tv shows to remember him by. I remember seeing on HEE HAW once, bare feet propped on a fence rail, wearing out his guitar strings! Don't remember what song it was, but I still have that image in my head to remember him! He will be missed. Always!

@mscongeniality1966 AMEN!

[mscongeniality1966]

Days gone by when you could trust your neighbors leave your doors unlocked coke was still in a glass bottle & tasted right kids actually learned in school TV was still Gasp something clean for kids to watch if you could do the job you got the job no PHD to flip burgers music was great America made the best cars it meant something to a proud American now we have people in power who openly say they are ashamed to be Americans A bad message for kids get that it is ok to be ashamed of your country!

I love this song so much. My dad had me watch Smokey and the Bandit growing up and I love it so much! Nothing like a good old Jerry Reed song to brighten my day.

I listen to this song all the time cause ever since I was little I was nicknamed the bandit and came across the movie when I was about 9. I wish jerry reed was still here to make more songs like this. Because there will never be another singer/song writer like him
