Whiskey Bottles, and brand new cars
oak tree your in my way
there is too much coke
and too much smoke

All Funked Up Lyrics By Lynyrd Skynyrd

Oooohhh....

Ahhhhhhhhh....

Tornados spinnin', I sit here grinnin'
I think we've all seen this movie before
This is confusin', almost amusin'
It's hard to tell up and down anymore
When did it get so crazy, how did we lose control
Everybodies shouting, how bad it really sucks

Situation normal
All funked up, We're all funked up

We had some leaders, and they were cheaters
But they came out smelling like a rose
We should reject them, but we respect them
For what they do when the door is closed
Nothing in this world a simple man can do
Stand up and be counted, ain't you had enough

Situation normal
All funked up, Yeah we're all funked up
We're funtionally disfuntional
We're funtionally yeah disfuntional
We're all funked up

Uuughh....

Don't you know the meaning of the word snafu
Better known as trouble for me and you
Murphy's law will get ya, he's on his way
Same ol' same ol' shit a different day

Uuughh....
Oh...

Tornados spinnin', I sit here grinnin'
I think we've all seen this movie before
This is confusin', almost amusin'
It's hard to tell up and down anymore
Everybodies shouting, how bad it really sucks

Situation normal
All funked up, we're all funked up...
We're all funked up...
We're all funked up...

Ooooohhhhh....

All funked up...

Gimme Back My Bullets Lyrics By Lynyrd Skynyrd

Life is so strange when its changin', yes indeed
Well I've seen the hard times and the pressure's been on me
But I keep on workin' like the workin' man do
And I've got my act together, gonna walk all over you

[chorus]
Gimme back my bullets
Put 'em back where they belong
Ain't foolin' around 'cause I done had my fun
Ain't gonna see no more damage done
Gimme back my bullets

Sweet talkin' people done ran me out of town
And I drank enough whiskey to float a battleship around
But I'm leavin' this game one step ahead of you
And you will not hear me cry 'cause I do not sing the blues

[chorus]
Gimme back my bullets
Put 'em back where they belong
Ain't foolin' around 'cause I done had my fun
Ain't gonna see no more damage done
Gimme back, gimme back my bullets
Oh, put 'em back... where they belong

Been up and down since I turned seventeen
Well I've been on top, and then it seems I lost my dream
But I got it back, I'm feelin' better everyday
Tell all those pencil pushers, better get out of my way

[chorus]
Gimme back my bullets
Put 'em back where they belong
Ain't foolin' around, 'cause I done had my fun
Ain't gonna see no more damage done
Gimme back, gimme back my bullets
Oh put 'em back where they belong
Gimme back my bullets

Poison Whiskey Lyrics By Lynyrd Skynyrd

(Edward King, Ronnie Van Zant)
Daddy was a cajun babe
Raised on Southern land
Somehow of my kin folk tell me
Was a street fightin' man
Well, they rush him down to see the doctor
Hey, doctor check his head
The only thing that was wrong with him
Was Johnny Walker's Red
He drank ol' poison whiskey
Until it killed him dead
Happened back in the bayou baby
Many years ago
Satan came to take him
And did it real slow
Well they rushed him down to see the doctor
The doctor just shook his head
Twenty years of rot gut whiskey
Done killed this poor man dead
He drank ol' poison whiskey
And it killed him dead
Poison whiskey
Take a tip from me people
Brother, can't you see
Ain't no future in no
Poison whiskey
They goin' to rush you down to see the doctor
The doctor goin' to check your head
The only thing he's goin' to tell you baby
Stop drinking Johnny Walker's Red
Don't drink poison whiskey
Don't you drink it boy

Ballad Of Curtis Loew Lyrics By Lynyrd Skynyrd

(Allen Collins, Ronnie Van Zant)
Well, I used to wake the mornin'
Before the rooster crowed
Searchin' for soda bottles
To get myself some dough
Brought 'em down to the corner
Down to the country store
Cash 'em in, and give my money
To a man named Curtis Loew
Old Curt was a black man
With white curly hair
When he had a fifth of wine
He did not have a care
He used to own an old Dobro
Used to play it 'cross his knee
I'd give old Curt my money
He'd play all day for me
chorus:
Play me a song
Curtis Loew, Curtis Loew
Well, I got your drinkin' money
Tune up your Dobro
People said he was useless
Them people all were fools
'Cause Curtis Loew was the finest picker
To ever play the blues
He looked to be sixty
And maybe I was ten
Mama used to whoop me
But I'd go see him again
I'd clap my hands, stomp my feet
Try to stay in time
He'd play me a song or two
Then take another drink of wine
chorus
Yes, sir
On the day old Curtis died
Nobody came to pray
Ol' preacher said some words
And they chunked him in the clay
Well, he lived a lifetime
Playin' the black man's blues
And on the day he lost his life
That's all he had to lose
Play me a song
Curtis Loew, hey Curtis Loew
I wish that you was here so
Everyone would know
People said he was useless
Them people all were fools
'Cause Curtis you're the finest picker
To ever play the blues

Simple Man Lyrics By Lynyrd Skynyrd

(Gary Rossington, Ronnie Van Zant)
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"
"Oh, take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come 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
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, 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, oh baby, if you try
All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied"
chorus
Oh yes, I will
"Boy, don't you worry, you'll find yourself
Follow your heart and nothing else
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied"
chorus
Baby, be a simple, really simple man
Oh, be something you love and understand

Dont Ask Me No Questions Lyrics By Lynyrd Skynyrd

(Gary Rossington, Ronnie Van Zant)
Well, every time that I come home
Nobody wants to let me be
It seems that all the friends I've got
Just got to come interrogate me
I appreciate your feelings
And I don't want to pass you by
But I don't ask you 'bout your business
Don't ask me about mine
Well it's true I love the money
And I love my brand new car
I like drinkin' the best of whiskey
And playin' in a honk-tonk bar
But when I come off the road
I just gotta have my time
'Cause I got to find a break in this action
Or else I'm gonna lose my mind
chorus:
So don't ask me no questions
And I won't tell you no lies
So don't ask me 'bout my business
And I won't tell you goodbye
Well, what's your favorite color
And do you dig the brothers, is drivin' me up a wall
And everytime I think I can sleep
Some fool has got to call
Well, don't you think that when I come home
I just want a little piece of mind?
If you want to talk about the business
Buddy you're just wasting time
chorus
I said don't ask no stupid questions
And I won't send you away
If you want to talk fishin'
Well, I guess that'll be OK

Life's Lessons Lyrics By Lynyrd Skynyrd

MMMMMmmmmmm...

I listen, and still I haven't heard
Tell me what is the word
And if I ever heard it would it be clear as water
Oh tears run down your face
Reflects the human race
We're all caught up with winnin' losin time and space

Life's lessons
So you think you know it all
But you're headin' for a fall
Ooh to make it back again
You'll have to crawl and step back
Take a look around
Are your feet still on the ground
Can we find you in the section of lost and found

Never think you got it figured out
'Cause when you do you begin to doubt
It's time for you to open your eyes

Will we look back and see what we've done
Will we be proud or ashamed of what we've become
Will we realize we all share one fate
Or is this another life's lesson... Too late

OOohhh...

Never think you've got it figured out
'Cause when you do you begin to doubt
It's time for you to open your eyes

OOohhh...

Will we look back and see what we've done
Will we be proud or ashamed of what we've become
Will we realize we all share one fate
Is this another life's lesson... Too late

Will we look back and see what we've done
OOohhh...OOohhh...
Will we realize we all share one fate
OOOohhhh life's lessons
OOohhh...OOohhh...OOohhh yeah life's lessons
Ooohh... life's lessons

Will we look back and see what we've done
Will we realize we all share one fate

Tuesday's Gone Lyrics By Lynyrd Skynyrd

Train roll on, on down the line,
Won't you please take me far away?
Now I feel the wind blow outside my door,
Means I'm leaving my woman behind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
My woman's gone with the wind.

And I don't know where I'm going.
I just want to be left alone.
Well, when this train ends I'll try again,
But I'm leaving my woman at home.

(chorus)
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
My woman's gone with the wind.

Train roll on many miles from my home,
See, I'm riding my nlues away.
Tuesday, you see, she had to be free
But somehow I've got to carry on.

(chorus)

On The Hunt Lyrics By Lynyrd Skynyrd

I said baby mama, I don't know your name
But I said baby, sugar I can play your game
Every night when we leave the hall
I see you hanging around
You wanna ride in my big black car baby
Wanna go uptown
[Chorus]
I know who you are baby
I know what they call you girl
Never put you down baby
I'm just like you baby, I'm on the hunt
I know lady
People gonna talk about you and me
Let me say one thing mama, sugar I do as I please
And if you wanna love me baby, I'm your man
And all those high-falutin' society people
I don't care if they don't undertand
[Chorus]
My daddy told me a long time ago
Said there's two things son
Two things you should know
And in these two things you must take pride
That's a horse and woman, yeah
Well both of them you ride
