this is what its all about where I live

Lynyrd Skynyrd one of my favorites!
 
Hello Russ,

Lynyrd Skynyrd, I've never heard of them! I was able to understand them tho! :)

Got plenty of Rednecks here in the Midwest, and I'm one of them.:) Had white in my hair for many years and a blue collar for most all my life.

Thanks for posting the link Russ.

Dave, You have been listening to lynyrd Skynyrd for years and you didn't even know it. I know you've heard
Free Bird
Gimme Three Steps
Sweet Home Alabama
 
RED WHITE AND BLUE
We don't have no plastic L.A. Frynds,
ain't on the edge of no popular trend.
Ain't never seen the inside of that magazine GQ.
We don't care if you 're a lawyer, or a texas oil man,
or some waitress busting ass in some liquor stand.
If you got Soul
We hang out with people just like you

My hair's turning white,
my neck's always been red,
my collar's still blue,
we've always been here
just trying to sing the truth to you.
Yes you could say
we've always been,
Red, White, and Blue

Ride our own bikes To Sturgis
we pay our own dues,
smoking camels, drinking domestic BREWS
You want to know where I have been
just look at my hands
Yeah, I've driven by the White House,
Spent some time in jail.
Momma cried but she still wouldn't pay my bail.
I ain't been no angel,
But even God, he understands.

My hair's turning white,
my neck's always been red,
my collar's still blue,
we've always been here
just trying to sing the truth to you.
Yes you could say
we've always been,
Red, White, and Blue

Yeah that's right!

My Daddy worked hard, and so have I,
paid our taxes and gave our lives
to serve this great country
so what are they complaining about

Yeah we love our families, we love our kids
you know it is love that makes us all so rich
That's where were at,
If they don't like it they can just
get the HELL out!

Yeah!

My hair's turning white,
my neck's always been red,
my collar's still blue,
we've always been here
just trying to sing the truth to you.
Yes you could say
we've always been,
Red, White, and Blue

oh..oh..Red, White, and Blue....

Red, White, and Blue

oh..oh....Red, White, and Blue
 
Sorry guys, the only one that I recognize is Sweet Home Alabama.

Guess your gonna have to kick me out of the Red Neck crowd! :) I don’t listen to any toons anymore! Too much of a distraction when I’m driving or just working around the office or shop.

See what you guys have to look forward to when you become an Old Fart! :)

Your only what 65?
 
Russ,

Thanks for the link, that's an awesome song.

I've seen these guys in concert many times over the years. Sad to say I don't remember much about the first several times I saw them (in the 70s), so I must have been having a real good time.

My son (16 or 17 at the time & a big fan) and I went to see them together six or seven years ago. About half way through the concert he asked me why everyone sings along with every song. I didn't have an answer, I was just singing along with all the rest of the "old people".

Does anyone know if they still leave a lone microphone in the middle of the stage when doing Free Bird?

Stay safe & hydrated,
Chuck
