(Ronnie Van Zant Rickey Medlocke Allen Collins)
Wino on the street. Drinkin' a bottle of booze
Ain't got nothing to say, yeah. And he don't got much to lose
Times are on his face. Blisters on his brain
Wonders who's at fault. Knows that he's to blame
Thinks back on his childhood and wonders the reasons why
Why some men have made it rich. Why some men have cried
Reached out his hand, lord. For a nickel or a dime
Livin' every day, yeah, for one more taste of wine
Wino, soon you've got to choose
How long must you take abuse
Wino, you wasn't born to lose
Sweet wine is making you a fool
Wino on the street. Drinkin' a bottle of booze
Ain't got nothing to say, yeah. And he don't got much to lose
I want to help him out with his troubles and woes
I guess he's a happy young man. God in heaven only knows
Wino, soon you've got to choose
How long must you take abuse
Wino, you wasn't born to lose
Sweet wine is making you a fool
Yonder come a man, now this I know
Now you better find some place to go
Yonder come a man to take you downtown
He don't want you hanging around
The lyrics WINO of LYNYRD SKYNYRD is also present in the album First and... last (1978)
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.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
