Sally Field movie. This script is a transcript that was painstakingly
transcribed using the screenplay and/or viewings of Smokey And The Bandit. I know, I know, I still need to get the cast names in there and I'll be eternally

(IGNITION STARTS)
(ENGINE IDLING)
(AIR BRAKES HISS)
You heard 'bout the legend
ofJesse James
And John Henry
just to mention some names
Well, there's a truck-drivin' legend
in the South today
A man called Bandit
from Atlanta, Ga.
Every gearjammer
knows his name
They swear he got asphalt
a-runnin'in his veins
A foot like lead
and nerves like steel
He's gonna go to glory
ridin' wheels
Oh, boy
He left Atlanta back in '
Haulin'him a load
up to Tennessee
He hit Mount Eeale
in a drivin'rain
So hard he couldn't even see
the passin' lane
Well, he started down the grade
when he lost a gear
He hit them brakes,
found he had no air
The Mount Eeale grade
is steep and long
And everybody that seen it
thought the Bandit was gone
All gone
Well, his truck jack-knifed
turned completely around
He was comin' down backwards
'bout the speed of sound
A lot of folks seen him
and they all say
He had his head out the window
yellin', "Clear the way!"
Well, he got to the bottom
safe and sound
Everybody asked Bandit
how he made it down
He said, "Folks, when the truck
picked up too much speed
"I just run along beside it
and drug my feet"
Ya heard the legend
ofJesse James
And John Henry
just to mention some names
Well, there's a truck-drivin' legend
in the South today
A man called Bandit
from Atlanta, Ga.
Every gearjammer
knows his name
They swear he's got asphalt
a-runnin'in his veins
A foot like lead
and nerves like steel
He's goin' up to glory
ridin' wheels
Ah, tell me, boy
Talk to me, guitar
Hey, Kirk. How ya doin'?
Tod Engels. How are ya?
- This your rig, son?
- Yeah.
Open it up. Let's see the manifest.
Well, placin' you under arrest
for transportin' alcoholic beverages
across state lines
without the proper permits.
And that means you,
you dumb cowboy.
You know truckin' Coors beer
east of Texas is bootleggin'.
- This here's Georgia, son.
- Just a friendly bet.
These two old boys put me up to it.
Now, when ya gonna learn?
Big and Little Enos Burdette make that
same bet with every gearjammer they can.
I say he ain't gonna go
for your game.
Son, from what I've heard, the biggest
thing about the Bandit is his ego,
and I figure that plus a lot of my dollars,
and he'll try anything, legal or not.
(ANNOUNCER) They've put on quite a show
for us today, haven't they, friends?
Yes, sir, you have seen some of
the finest gearjammin'in all of this country.
Remember, these are the boys that take
the long hauls They really did it today.
- Hoss... Where might I find the Bandit?
- I ain't seen him.
- Over there behind his rig.
- Who wants to see him?
- Who's askin'?
- I'm askin'.
'Cause I'm the guy payin' him $ a day
so all his loyal fans can look at him.
Do it.
I'm buyin' your attraction
for a half an hour.
Egotistical son of a bitch.
A guy that paints his truck like this would go
to a minister's funeral dressed in feathers.
(BIG ENOS) See, son? Old legends
never die. They just lose weight.
Seems like a legend and an out-of-work
bum look a lot alike, Daddy.
(BIG ENOS)
Bandit, me and my son are here.
Oh, I love your suits.
It must be a bitch gettin' a size
extra-fat and a dwarf.
I came to make a deal. What's he get
if he wins this truck rodeo thing?
- (BANDIT) lf? I
- $ Daddy.
- Chicken-shit money.
- Just what the hell you want, anyway?
You to get out of this dumb-ass rodeo
and accept a real challenge.
(BANDIT) Gettin' to Texarkana and back
in hours, that's no problem.
- It ain't never been done before, hotshit.
- Watch your language, little lady.
The problem is that Coors beer.
You take that east of Texas
and that's, uh... that's bootleggin'.
I believe you're just a little bit scared.
Great psychology. Why don't you say
somethin' bad about my mother?
- Your mama is so ugly...
- Look, you make this run for me.
These Peterbilts are worth $ .
That comes to about three grand
an hour if you make it in hours.
How about that for a challenge?
- Dad, I don't believe that that's necess...
- Never mind.
Wait a minute. Why do you
want that beer so bad?
Because he's thirsty, dummy.
You see, I got a boy runnin' tomorrow
in the Southern Classic
When he wins,
I wanna celebrate in style.
- How much style?
- Well, I got a few friends and me.
cases.
- cases...?
- Well?
- Well, let me see your cash.
- Big Enos's word is gold.
All right show him the cash.
- Go ahead, Little.
- Shit.
Let's see. There's cases of beer,
I'll need the cash for that.
No problem. Go ahead, boy.
New car. Gotta have a new car
to block for the truck.
- OK. Go ahead, boy.
- I'd like to kick his ass just once.
Speedy car.
Speedier than that.
Go ahead.
- Hello, darlin'.
- Hi, Uncle Bandit.
- Which one of the house apes are you?
- Kate.
He's droppin' 'em like flies, isn't he?
Well, well, well. Hello, beautiful.
- How about 'gorgeous'?
- You can't have him.
Obviously you can. What are you
tryin' to do, start another race?
Look, you got Cledus in jail once.
Leave us alonel
- Hi, Uncle Banditl
- He ain't your damn unclel
I always recognise youl You know why?
You always kick me in the ballsl
Damn it, Banditl Look at mel
I find it hard to look at you, Waynette,
especially with those things in your hair.
Makes me think you're listening
to a radio station in Savannah.
You can't go in there and bother Cledus.
Heyl This is my homel
- Cledus.
- Nol
I know in the past
I may have done you wrong.
- Right?
- Right.
However, in the future, Cledus,
I will never, ever do you wrong again.
- Right?
- Right.
We have a big chance, a big chance
to make a run for some big bucks.
- of them.
- Really?
- Are we gonna kidnap the Pope or somethin'?
- How'd you guess?
No. We're just gonna run over to Texarkana
and pick up cases of Coors
and bring it back in hours.
Whoal I got a flash for you.
That's called bootleggin',
and that's against the law.
Who gives a turkey when the Snowman
and the Bandit are runnin' the booze?
- No one can stop us.
- Hold it right there.
There ain't gonna be no more
Snowman and Bandit.
Because I've got to go in the morning
to Conyers and pick up a load of manure.
- Shitty job.
- Can I ask you a question?
Sure. Ask me.
What the hell do we wanna go to
Texas for and haul beer back here?
For the good old American life.
For the money, for the glory
and for the fun.
Mostly for the money. You know
what we're gonna do with the money?
- What?
- We're gonna buy a new rig.
- You're crazy, you know that.
- Yeah.
- How much money did you say it was?
- $ .
$ ?
- Hm.
- Waynettel
Now, Bo, I'm tellin' ya,
Fred here ain't gonna be no problem.
- I can see he'll be a major asset.
- Besides, he's one hellacious watchdog.
- Well, let's get goin'.
- Whoa. Hold it a minute.
I got to ask you a question.
Sit right there, Fred.
You mean to tell me
we're gonna drive from here
to Texarkana, Texas,
and back to here in hours?
It's only miles there
and miles back.
Well, for your information,
that ain't never been done, not in no rig.
'Cause you and I never done it in no rig.
You gotta stop thinkin' so negative.
'Course we can make it.
We ain't never not made it yet, have we?
- Well, no.
- You see? There you are.
Yeah. Yeah, I see. I see all right.
I see our asses in a sling
if we get caught that's what I see.
Heyl Ho-ho-hol
Well, God Almighty,
would you look at thatl
- It's beautiful, huh?
- Honey, hush.
I don't guess we're gonna be ridin'
in the truck together this time?
No, son. I'll be drivin' this one
and blockin'.
You'll be drivin' the truck.
This is Bandit One and that is...
...Bandit Two. Together again.
- Like Fred and Ginger and Lester and Earl
- That's right. But we got a problem.
You know them Smokeys
got them CBs in the car now.
I haven't worked that out yet,
but I'm thinkin' about it.
I got an idea.
Why don't we do this?
If I say go to channel forget it.
We ain't goin' to we're goin' to .
- is ?
- If I say go to channel six, forget it.
- We go to three.
- I go to three. Perfect.
- If I say go to channel two, we go to one.
- Two is one.
- That'll confuse everybody.
- That'll confuse 'em.
On the other hand,
if we stayed on the odd channels,
switched every time and started
in the basement, that'd work, too.
- That'd do it, too, wouldn't it?
- Well, yeah, that'd work too, I guess.
- Let's haul ass.
- OK.
(FRED BARKS)
Breaker One. This is the Bandit.
Is the Snowman out there?
- Am I hittin'ya, son?
- Mercy sakes.
You put about eight and a half on me,
blowin' my windows out. Bring it on.
I'll be within earshot.
You keep it wound up to around .
- Hey, Bandit. Me and Fred's got a question.
- What do you and Fred want?
How come we're doing this?
They said it couldn't be done.
- That's the reason.
- That's good with Fredl

Hey, want a beer?
- Well, sonl

We still got a lot of boogiein' to do.
Put the pedal to the metal.
I'm - on the side.
For sure. Me and Fred,
we got your back door, ain't we, Fred?
- Sorry. I don't want to get married.
- Terrific That makes two of us.
- Will you unzip me?
- Sure.
- Does this thing move?
- Oh, yeah.
(BLARES HORN)
Where are we going?
No, don't tell me. Let me guess.
- We are a bride in search of a wedding.
- No.
There is a wedding in search of a bride.
Let me put it another way.
Think of it as a wedding posse
in search of a bride.
- You understand that cowboy?
- Yeah.
What are ya doin'?
- These are my shoes.
- Oh, yeah.
- And these are my legs.
- Yeah.
- What are you gonna do with them?
- With the shoes or the legs?
Last time I saw legs like that
they had a message tied to 'em.
What do you mean? These are
great little legs. I'm a professional.
Well, in that case,
you shouldn't be dressed in white.
- Dancer.
- Oh.
Well, cowboys love fat calves.
- They're not fat.
- They're bigger than mine.
- Do we really wanna talk about legs?
- One of us does.
Otherwise we wouldn't have gone...
What are we doing now?
Well, I am getting my clothes, you fool.
Good idea. Why don't you
slip into somethin' comfortable?
Are we really going ?
We're going I
Why do you wear that cowboy hat?
Because you think it looks dazzling on you.
I'd no idea this dress
would be so hard to get out of.
Hold up on that car wash, gentlemen.
Come here, son.
Whoopsl
You look tired, boy. Rest yourself.
You punks look tuckered out, too.
That's an attention-getter.
- Now, a lady in a weddin' gown.
- Yes, sir.
- Get in a car?
- Yes, sir.
- See who was drivin'?
- N-no, sir.
- Licence plate?
- Y-yes, sir. Georgia plates.
"Ban-one."
B-A-N dash O-N-E.
All right. Now, you boys
just stay here and watch the car.
There might be some vandals around
who wanna steal somethin',
so you boys just stay here
and keep your hands on the car
until one of my aassociates arrive.
And don't go home, don't go to eat,
and don't play with yourself.
It wouldn't look nice on my highway.
Oh, you can think about it,
but don't do it.
Hey, man, he's gone.
Let's get outta here.
Shitl You do what you want.
I'm stayin' right here.
years old and... Oh, goodness,
what's this? I'll tuck it right in.
I was down here dancing
in a home appliance show.
- I danced around three trash mashers.
- Talk to me, my boy.
I had this costume that lit up.
I only short-circuited once.
- Where did you get that seat cover, son?
- This ain't no seat cover.
- I was standing in the parking lot...
- I'm sitting next to Lawrence of Arabia.
I met this guy... These can't be my pants.
God, he was good-looking.
- And he had this hat on...
- Funny, ain't she?
I think he was from Texas or something,
and I thought "Why not marry the guy?"
Nobody walks out
on a pretty weddin' I set up.
I'm gonna get that girl
and set everything straight.
She insulted my town.
She insulted my son.
- Look, what if we...
- Shut upl She insulted my authority.
And that's nothin' but pure and simple
old-fashioned Communism.
It happens every time one of those
dancers starts poontangin' around...
with those show-folk fags.
Halfway down the aisle I said to myself,
"Jesus Christ, what are you doing?
His mother doesn't even have any teethl"
I jumped in this car, and it blew up
on the side of the road,
and I ended up in this goddamn airplane.
What do you do?
I don't remember.
- Oh, are we on the air?
- Sort of, yeah.
You think I'm... nuts, don't you?
No, I don't think you're crazy.
I picked up three brides yesterday,
just like you, very subdued.
Hey, what... what's goin' on up there?
- Come back, Bandit
- Bandit?
- Is that your name or your profession?
- That's my handle. Bo's my real name.
- What's your name?
- Carrie.
Is she wearing a wedding dress?
She was.
What's she wearin' now?
Come back.
Hey, you got peanut butter
or somethin' in your ears?
Tell me what that woman's got on...
her mindl
- I
No coozie's gonna leave me
at no church.
Decoratin' up a whole town
at a cost of $ .
Right.
I can see her now,
runnin' back up that aisle...
No, she was dancin'
back up the aisle,
her knockers bouncin'
all over the joint.
Let go of that wheel.
Why, her ass was wigglin', too.
Why so fast?
You're late for a big bowling date?
Cute.
- So, tell me about yourself.
- What do you wanna know, my sign?
- What do you do besides drive fast?
- Have fun.
- Is this fun?
- Drivin'?
- Driving, talking to me.
- They're both a challenge.
- You've got a great profile.
- Yeah, don't I? Especially from the side.
At least we finally agree on something.
Yeah. We both like half my face.
Hey, would a cop taking a leak
on the side of the road interest you?
Yes, it would.
- He's taking a - .
- At least it's better than a - .
(SIREN)
- Smokey.
- Smokey.
- Is this fun?
- I forgot to tell ya:
I'm runnin' blocker for cases
of illegal Coors.
Holy shitl
I don't believe this.
Funny, I don't remember that turn.
- Bandit, where the hell are you?
- I'll be back on the highway in a second.
All right, good buddy.
I'll keep my eyes peeled.
- Them things are fabulous.
- I think I just went - .
- Well, it's better than - .

Well, the more wheels I got

Highway marker number .
How's our time doin'?
Oh, how are we doin' on time?
About minutes ahead of schedule.

- Except for that...
- Shut your ass.
(HORNS BLARE)
- Break for that Bandit One.
- Yeah, Snowman, come on back.
That was a Texas bubblegum machine
on your back door.
- A Texas bubblegum machine?
- Yeah, I saw him.
You ain't gonna believe this, but that crazy
sombitch tried to drive up under my truck.
What's a Texas county mountie
doing in Arkansas?
- I don't know.
- I don't know.
I don't knowl
- Well, who the hell knows?
- I really don't know.
What we're dealin' with here is
a complete lack of respect for the law.
(JUSTICE ON RADIO)
This is Sheriff Buford T. Justice.
I'm in pursuit of a black TransAm.
He's all mine, so stay outta the way.
This is Sheriff George Branford
of Deeson County, Arkansas.
We are apprised of the situation
and are taking appropriate measures.
Did you say you are a sheriff?
That's a big - I
This is Sheriff Buford T. Justice
of Texasl
Texas? You know, of course,
that you're out of yourjurisdiction.
I suggest that you let my department
handle the situation.
That's very comfortin',
but I'm in a high-speed pursuit.
- Don't you hear good?
- I hear perfectly.
The fact that you are a sheriff
is not germane to the situation.
The goddamn Germans
got nothin' to do with itl
- What?
- Shut upl One shit at a timel
- What do ya see?
- We lost him.
This is Sheriff Buford T. Justice again.
I lost that TransAm.
Set up a roadblock.
- Good ideal

I believe we have the situation
well under control, Sheriff.
Breaker, breaker, lookin'for the Bandit

CBers are mighty proud of ya out there.
Thank ya, son. I appreciate it.
Tell me, you comin' up

Well, you keep your wheels spinnin'

Why, thank you, Officer.

Did you see that? They went
right through our roadblock.
You sombitches couldn't
close an umbrella.
You know somethin', Sheriff? If J.W.
don't get out of my way, I'll pass him.
Where? In the woods?
I don't care if your daddy is the mayor.
You wreck this car, it'll come outta your pay.
- Yeah, but he's gettin' away.
- Son, he's not goin' anywhere.
The Mulberry Bridge has been dismantled
for the past six months.
(BANDIT)That's not good.
It would be better with a whole bridge.
(BANDIT) And that's worse.
- Why don't you drop me off? I'll catch a cab.

and then I'll get right back on the job.
All right.
- on that choke-and-puke.
- Oh, by the way, Bandit...
- Yeah, guy?
How 'bout bringin' me a hamburger for Fred?
I'm beginnin' to worry about him.

- You got 'em.
- Choke-and-puke.
- Choke-and-puke.
- That's where I'll get off?
- Right.
You oughta give up smokin'.

Bank robber?
Bank robbin' is baby shit
alongside of what this dude is doin'.
Almost killed law officers.
Drivin' through people's backyards,
knockin' down mailboxes.
He's got a broad in the car,
took her across the state line.
That's the Mann Act.
I don't think he's got her permission,
and that's kidnapping.
- How's that for high jinks?
- Yeah.
(BURPS)
- What I owe?
- Oh, let me pay for it.
- You're an officer of the law. I'd be honoured.

screamin'. He's turned into a stalk of bananas.

- About miles this side of Mississippi.
Whoa, hold it. I just passed
another Kojak with a Kodak.
This place is crawlin' with bears.
Where the hell are you? Come back.
I'm still tryin' to get rid of that Texas County
mountie. I don't know what the hell he wants.
You know what he wants. How would you like
to be the dude that handcuffs a legend?
Give me five minutes, we'll put some moves
on that mother. I'll meet ya at Old Miss.
You'd better hurry, or we can just kiss
that money goodbye. Understand?
I read you loud and clear. - .
You got the one Snowman.

- What the hell was that?
- A left, or half a 'u'.
Well, please don't do it anymore.
Hey, you know who that was?
Check this out.

Put the pedal to the metal, and we'll hold
this county mountie as long as we can.
- Well, go, girl, gol
- I'm goin'I I'm goin'I
I've got the metal to the pedal,
and the thing to the floor...
Damn, he had a lot of friends, didn't he?
If they had cremated the son of a bitch,
I could've been kickin' that Mr Bandit's
ass around the moon by now.
Hold my hatl

Now, I know you're

He caused all of this, the Bandit.

He's a mental case.

When I get home, the first thing I'm gonna

l-I'll be with you
in a moment, young man.
Bandit, honey, this is the Good
Witch of the North speakin'.
You'd better not come this way.
There's been a little
fender bender here on .

That'll work for me, 'cause I need to pull off,
suck up a little go-go juice
and put some groceries down my neck.
Y'all be careful

An outlaw untamed
Shackled only by freedom
You wear no man's chain

Fill her up, hoss.

- I don't know. Fix the same thing.
Just cook the onions this time.

No.
You like Elton John?
No.
- Do you know who Casey Tibbs is?
- Baseball player.
- Close. Richard Petty?
- No.
- Waylon Jennings? No.

When you tell somebody somethin',
it depends on what part of
the United States you're standin' in...
as to just how dumb you are.
Mr Bandit, you have a lyrical way
of cutting through the bullshit.
And you have a unique way with
the English language, Miss Frog.
Bandit steals a lady's heart
With only a smile
- Don't you take that hat off for anything?
- Sure.
I take it off for one thing,
and one thing only.
And you live much too hard
Bandit, you're the joker
- If we were lost on a desert island together...
- Yes?
Do you think we'd get along
and talk and... things?
Sure.
Yeah, we'd get along.
It'd never be boring, I can tell you that.
It would never be boring.
Take your hat off.
If you want to.

- Eat him.
I don't think Fred bit you, mister.
Fred absolutely don't like grease.
Gearjammer, huh?
King of the road, huh?
- It's time to get out.

I'll thank you not to use
that kind of language in my presence.
Never mind that crap.
What the hell is this?

Do you know who you're talkin' to?
I happen to be Buford T. Justice,
a distinguished officer
of over years' seniorityl
One of the most highly respected
law-enforcement agents...
in the United States of America.
That vehicle happens to be
evidence, valuable evidence,
that's going to convict a maniac
that I've been tryin' to apprehend
and that I have been
in high-speed pursuit of
for miles.
He is wanted for the Mann Act,
kidnappin'
and the attempted murder
of over brother officers.
Sir, I'm sorry. I had no idea.
It never occurred to me... Well, please, sir,
you proceed immediately, and...
I hope you'll accept my apologies
for my profanity.
Apology accepted.
Now... (HORN DROWNS WORDS)
How about you, Bandit?
You copy this Snowman? Come on.
I got ya, son. Come on back.
You ain't gonna believe this,

I went a few rounds with some dudes
at this eat-'em-up joint.
Oh, I believe anything you tell me.
How'd ya do, same as always?
Yeah, about normal. I lost.
We also lost a lot of valuable time.
We gonna really have to cook.

Actually, my heaviest relationship

And?
One day I came home
and found him in the shower...
...with a girl...

You have a wonderful way
of putting things.

of those bears for you.
- You know, a little "personalised service".
- Send me the bill, Foxy Lady.
Better yet, why don't you
come by and pay up in person?
I'll catch you on the flip side, darlin'.
I'm too pooped to pop.
- Daddy, listen.
- Shut upl
But I'm just ahead of you.
I'm at mile marker .
Come on by, Bandit.
All right you talked me into it.
Now I got that sombitch,

Trucks, I love 'em. I love 'em.
This is not a convoy.
This is a dream.

We've got a long way to go
And a short time to get there
I'm eastbound
Just watch ol'Bandit run
Keep your foot hard on the pedal,
son, never mind them brakes
Let it all hang out
'cause we got a run to make
Those boys are thirsty in Atlanta
and there's beer in Texarkana
And we'll bring it back
no matter what it takes
Eastbound and down

We've got a long way to go
and a short time to get there

Just watch ol'Bandit run
Old Smokey's got them ears on
he's hot on your trail
He ain't gonna rest
till you're in jail
So you got to dodge him
you got to duck him
You've got to keep
that diesel truckin'
Just put that hammer down
and give it hell
Eastbound and down
loaded up and truckin'
We gonna do
what they say can't be done
We've got a long way to go
and a short time to get there
I'm eastbound
Just watch ol'Bandit run
