Subject: Dukes of Hazzard theme
Just another TV trivia question from the 80s that I need the answer to: Who sang the theme song to "The Dukes of Hazzard"? I can't remember if it was Waylon Jennings or Merle Haggard. Any help would be appreciated...

Yep, definitely Ol' Waylon. In fact, the theme song ("Good Ol' Boys") was released as a single, and hit #21 here in the U.S. in the Fall of '80...
In a response to one of my recent posts on this board, you mentioned the episode of E!'s "True Hollywood Story" telling about the cast of "Diff'rent Strokes". (Yes, I saw that one.) Well, there was also one for the "Dukes of Hazzard" that aired just recently as well. Very interesting - even included a brief interview w/ Jennings. Not sure when it will air again...

He was also the Balladeer (voice).
That was part of a great Friday night line up.
