Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones - Eric Church

Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones - Eric Church Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones
Spelled with all 4 y's
Was born in 70-something
Between "Sweet Home" & "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

[Chorus]
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 till the day she died

[Verse 2]
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 pawn shop bought guitar
You can't teach that kind of pickin’
It’s got to come right from your heart
[Chorus]
Lynyrd Skynyrd Jones
Hailed from Gadsdеn, 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 liеs
That’s what she always told him
Right up till the day she died

[Verse 3]
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 Lowe
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
