Lynyrd Skynyrd --- Free Bird

If I leave here tomorrow.....
Would you still remember me? For I must be traveling on, now,
cause there's too many places Ive got to see.
But, if I stayed here with you, girl....
 Things just couldn't be the same.
Cause I'm as free as a bird now, And this bird you can not change.
 Lord knows, I cant change.

Bye, bye, its been a sweet love. Though this feeling I cant change.
 But please don't take it so badly, cause lord knows I'm to blame.
 But, if I stayed here with you girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
 Cause I'm as free as a bird now, And this bird you'll never change.
And this bird you can not change.
 Lord knows, I cant change.
Lord help me, I cant change. “Troubles will come and they will pass.” ― Lynyrd Skynyrd, Lynyrd Skynyrd Songbook

WHO ARE THE WHO?



They made big news back in the day......
During live performances, including appearances at Woodstock and The Isle of Wight Festival, they became renowned for smashing their instruments, and at one point held the Guinness World Record for the loudest concert. Off-stage, they cemented their rock and roll reputation by wrecking hotel rooms and parking a Rolls Royce in a swimming pool.

The death of drummer Keith Moon saw the band separate in 1978, although, with Kenney Jones and Zak Starkey on drums, they reformed for one-off events, such as Live Aid in 1985. Plans to reform and produce new material were dealt another blow with the death of John Entwistle in 2002, although Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend still tour together as The Who. In 2006 Daltrey and Townshend released Endless Wire, the first Who album in 24 years.
