(Ed King Ronnie VanZant)
Daddy was a Cajun, raised on Southern land
And so my kinfolks tell me, was a street fightin' man.
Well, they rushed him down to see the doctor
Hey doctor, won't you check his head?
The only thing that was wrong with him
Was Johnny Walker's Red
He drank ole poison whisky
'Til it killed him dead.
It happened back in the bayou many years ago
Satan came to take him and he did it real slow
Well, they rushed him back to see the doctor
The doctor just shook his head,
Twenty years of rotgut whisky
Done killed the poor man dead.
He drank ole poison whisky
'Til it killed him dead.
Take a tip from me, people... brothers can't you see
Ain't no future in ole poison whisky.
They're gonna rush you down to see the doctor,
The doctor's gonna shake his head.
The only thing he's gonna tell ya
Stop drinkin' Johnny Walker's Red
Don't drink poison whisky, don't you drink it boy.
Lynyrd Skynyrd is a legendary American Southern rock band formed in Jacksonville, Florida, in 1964. The group achieved international success in the 1970s with a sound characterized by bluesy riffs, evocative lyrics about the American South, and virtuoso guitar playing. Lynyrd Skynyrd is known for iconic songs like "Sweet Home Alabama", "Free Bird", and "Simple Man".
