I had this song on 45:


Mike

.....when Amos Moses was a boy his daddy would use him for alligator bait.....


*sigh* You just don't hear those sort of song lyrics any more.   Goodbye Jerry!

Me and Homer Jones and Big John Callie,
had a big crap game goin' back in the alley...
...
When you're hot, you're hot,
when you're not, you're not!

RIP

He was a legend long before my time, but I will never forget the Jerry Reed who played Cletus Snow in Smoky And The Bandit! Just to think that him and Jackie Gleason are up there now remembering those old days.
