(Johnny Van Zant, Robert Johnson, Michael Lunn)
What can they all be thinkin'
Wanna' take the cross off of the hill
Put away the pledge of allegience
Lord,just the thought gives me a chill
They can take God off our money but, in the end 'o ain't it funny
How were all gonna see him on the judgement day
So sing it loud
(chorus)
One more time
Hear what you say
When you got the truth inside, now they can't take that away
One more time
'Cause it ain't too late
Hold on to what you believe 'cause thay can't take that
they can't take that away
They want to change somethin' somewhere for everybody
Right now a change ain't what we need
Just like my father's father before him
They held on with pride to everything they believed
They can take God off our money but, in the end 'o aint it funny
How were all gonna see him on the judgement day
(repeat chorus)
There's a fire that burns forever
Come a day we ain't gonna take no more
(repeat chorus)

Lynyrd Skynyrd è una leggendaria band americana di Southern Rock formatasi a Jacksonville, in Florida, nel 1964. Il gruppo ha raggiunto il successo internazionale negli anni '70 con un sound caratterizzato da riff bluesy, testi evocativi del Sud degli Stati Uniti e virtuosismi chitarristici. I Lynyrd Skynyrd sono noti per brani iconici come "Sweet Home Alabama", "Free Bird" e "Simple Man". La band ha subito una tragedia nel 1977 con l'incidente aereo che ha portato alla morte di tre membri fondatori, tra cui il chitarrista Allen Collins. Nonostante questo duro colpo, i Lynyrd Skynyrd sono tornati in attività negli anni '80 e continuano ad essere un punto di riferimento per il Southern Rock, influenzando generazioni di musicisti.
