No Skynyrd
Plug in my guitar and check the microphone
No guys in the band, just me alone
No guitar virtuoso, I play a simple song
Please listen to me, cause I don't have very long
Tonight I'm playin' for free and I don't know no Skynard
"You Got That Right" no "Free Bird"
No "Simple Man" "Searching" or even "Sweet Home"
And not a single note from "Tuesday's Gone"
I'll be playin' my songs, and I don't know no Skynard
If you came for karaoke, that's on Thursday nite
There'll be some drunk singing Coe, there might even be a fight
The silence between each song is bringing me to my knees
Don't put money in the jukebox until I'm finished, please
Tonight I'm singin' for free and I don't know no Skynard
You won't hear "Gimme Three Steps"
No "Curtis Loew", "I Know a Little" or "Every Mothers Son"
And not a single bar of "I Ain't the One"
I'll be singin' my songs, and I don't know no Skynard
Tonight I'm out here for free and I don't know no Skynard
Don't 'spect to hear "I Ain't the One"
No "Swamp Music", "T for Texas" or "Needle & the Spoon"
"You Got That Right" I'll be leaving the stage real soon
I'll be doing my songs, and I don't know no Skynard
