You just made my day buddy I'm on of those over 40 and I sure

remember being 16 when smokey & the bandit came out I knew

one day I have that car . One of the most dumb decisions

GM ever made is to let the Pontiac die

well I have mine and I can't wait for the roads to get dry.. an as soon as spring is in the air

I have that mighty V8 roaring down the road and with a big smile on my face.... feels like I was back in the 70'

@fiddynisse at least he tried, and it still sounds better than not singing it

[nikesb2406]

Sure, this isn't pro, but at least you went and did it so 5 stars bud! I enjoyed it =) Clearly played and sang with passion, nice.

18 wheels a rollin' are the lyrics of "Westbound and down" from the first half of Smokey and the Bandit I. Proper lyrics are "Eastbound and down, load it up and truck it...."

Incredible video. Could you do a lesson of this song ? I would really appreciate that and I'm sure other will too. I just love the way you play it. Thanks !

I always wanted one of them, I'll admit. Good job on this song. That old Jerry Reed was underappreciated I think. He was a marvelous guitar picker and singer, as well as a good actor.
