Boulder to Birmingham The Dukes of Hazzard Version

[Skipper Duke]

Tom Wopat (Luke Duke) & Roberta Leighton (Candy Dix) version of Boulder to Birmingham from The Dukes of Hazzard Season 6 episode Play It Again, Luke.

 

🎶 I got on this airplane just to fly I know there's life below me but all that you can show is the prairie and the sky I don't wanna hear a sad story full of heartbreak and desire the last time I felt like this I was in the wilderness and the canyon was on fire and I stood on the mountain in the night and watched it burn I watched it burn I watched it burn I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham I would hold my life in his saving grace I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham if I thought I could see your face I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham I would hold my life in his saving grace I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham if I thought I could see your face I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham I would hold my life in his saving grace I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham if I thought I could see if I thought I could see your face 🎶

I love that song!

Off the subject Skipper, do you know the word Skipper appears on the show? I'll tell you where if you don't know.

That question is so tough that it doesn't seem fair. The answer is Skipper Ward Surplus. It was a store from season 4.

It appears in the dialogue too. In 'The Return of the Mean Green Machine', Vance says "See if you can get up broadside, close as you can." and Coy replies "Aye, aye, skipper."

Skipper Ward Surplus was a nod to Skip Ward who was associate producer/producer/supervising producer on 116 episodes (I'm sure I've mentioned this before).
