Free bird, Simple Man / Lynyrd Skynyrd

 

 

 

 

If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be travelling on now,
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see.
If I stayed here with you, girl,

Things just couldn't be the same.
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you can not change.
And this bird you can not change.
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.
Bye, bye, babe it's been a sweet love.
Though this feeling I can't change.
But please don't take it so badly,
'Cause the Lord knows I'm to blame.
But, if I stayed here with you girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird you can not change
And this bird you can not change
And this bird you can not change
Lord knows, I can't change.
Lord help me, I can't change.
Lord I can't change
Let me fly like a free bird

 

 

 

(Ronnie VanZant -- Gary Rossington)
Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say.
And if you do this
It will help you some sunny day.
Take your time... Don't live too fast,
Troubles will some and they will pass.
Go find a woman and you'll find love,
And don't forget son,
There is someone up above.

(Chorus)
And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Won't you do this for me son,
If you can?

Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

(Chorus)

Boy, don't you worry... you'll find yourself.
Follow you heart and nothing else.
And you can do this if you try.
All I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

(Chorus)
