Eric Church - Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones lyrics
[Eric Church - Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones lyrics]
Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones, spelled with all 4 y's
Was born in 70-something
'tween "Sweet Home" and "You Got That Right"
His mama met his daddy at a Tallahassee show
But just like Tuesday
Daddy wound up gone on down the road
Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones hailed from Gadsden
Alabama
Born to carry on who his mama was a fan of
Don’t ask me no questions and I
Won’t tell you no lies
That’s what she always told him
Right up 'til the day she died
Oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Lynyrd wasn't black or white
He was somewhere in between
Throw in abandoned and confused
And you get the blues when you’re just 13
Well, he found his salvation
In a pawnshop-bought guitar
You can't teach that kind of pickin’
It’s gotta come right from your heart
Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones hailed from Gadsden
Alabama
Callеd to carry on who his mama was a fan of
Don’t ask me no questions and I
Won’t tell you no liеs
That’s what she always told him
Right up till the day she died
Oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
When Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones’ mama passed away
A dressed in all black
Black man stood up in the back to say
Been thinking about your mama
Since that Tallahassee show yeah, son
I am your daddy and my name is Curtis Loew
Oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Was born in 70-something
'tween "Sweet Home" and "You Got That Right"
His mama met his daddy at a Tallahassee show
But just like Tuesday
Daddy wound up gone on down the road
Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones hailed from Gadsden
Alabama
Born to carry on who his mama was a fan of
Don’t ask me no questions and I
Won’t tell you no lies
That’s what she always told him
Right up 'til the day she died
Oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Lynyrd wasn't black or white
He was somewhere in between
Throw in abandoned and confused
And you get the blues when you’re just 13
Well, he found his salvation
In a pawnshop-bought guitar
You can't teach that kind of pickin’
It’s gotta come right from your heart
Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones hailed from Gadsden
Alabama
Callеd to carry on who his mama was a fan of
Don’t ask me no questions and I
Won’t tell you no liеs
That’s what she always told him

Oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
When Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones’ mama passed away

Oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
