Chorus



Well if I can keep it on the ground when I put that hammer down

Then I'll be Texas bound and a flyin'

I've got my ten in the wind, let it all hang out again

'Cause how you gonna win if you ain't tryin'



Now we're all back together and we're burning up the road

And that ol' sheriff's out there dogging us again

He thinks he's really got cookin', plans to do a lot of bookin',

The only trouble he keeps lookin' where we've already been



So if I can keep it on the ground when I put that hammer down

Then I'll be Texas bound and a flyin'



Chorus



Well if I can keep it on the ground when I put that hammer down

Then I'll be Texas bound and a flyin'

I've got my ten in the wind, let it all hang out again

'Cause how you gonna win if you ain't tryin'



Now Smokey and the Bandit is a tale you don't forget

'Cause everytime you hear an engine scream and whine

Well you'll have to think about ol' Bandit

Ol' Buford, Frog and Fred and Snowman

Their story is a legend that will live on in time



So if I can keep it on the ground when I put that hammer down

Then I'll be Texas bound and a flyin'
