Biography

Lynyrd Skynyrd (pronounced /ˌlɛnərd ˈskɪnərd/ len-ərd-skin-ərd) is an American rock band best known for popularizing the Southern hard rock genre during the 1970s. Originally formed in 1964 as the "Noble Five" in Jacksonville, Florida, the band rose to worldwide recognition on the basis of its driving live performances and signature tunes "Sweet Home Alabama," and "Free Bird." At the peak of their success, three members died in an airplane crash in 1977, putting an abrupt end to the band's most popular incarnation. Surviving members re-formed in 1987 for a reunion tour with lead singer Ronnie Van Zant's younger brother Johnny as frontman. A version of the band continues to tour and record, with only Gary Rossington of its original members remaining, until his death on March 5th, 2023. Lynyrd Skynyrd was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on March 13, 2006.

LYRICS

Ooooooooo.... Yeah OOOOOOOOO
Well sometimes I lose my direction, And sometimes I jump off track
But when I ride out baby, I can always get back
I need to feel the cool breeze in my face, The rumble of the engines between my legs
Hey little sister, You can color me gone
So if I want to stay out all night long, You can't stop me from running wild
Yeah don't worry how long I'm gone, I'll come back every once and a while

I pick 'em up, I lay 'em all down
I never like my feet, to ever hit the ground
Don't miss me when I'm gone, Cause I'll be around
I'm a free spirit baby pick me up and lay me on down

That's right. Wooo

Well I know I got a good life, Jim Beam, And women, They treat me right
I make my own rules, Like it or not
Now don't misunderstand me baby, I give it every once and a while
Well it's tough love honey, But I'll leave you with a smile
So if I want to stay out all night long, You can't stop me from running wild
Now don't worry how long I'm gone, I'll come back every once and a while

I pick 'em up, I lay 'em all down
I never like my feet, to ever hit the ground
Don't miss me when I'm gone, Cause I'll be around
I'm a free spirit baby pick me up and lay me on down

I've been here, I've been there, I've been everywhere
I wouldn't tell you no lies
and just like me you're a wild one, Won't you take me for a ride

I pick 'em up, and lay 'em all down
I never like my feet, to ever hit the ground
Don't miss me when I'm gone, Cause I'll be around
I'm a free spirit baby pick me up and lay me on down
Yeah I'm a free spirit baby pick me up and lay me on down

You got to lay me on down, Yes you do
I'm a free spirit, Oh you know you are Johnny
Oooooooh That's what I am Oooooooh
