From the album "(pronounced 'lĕh-'nérd 'skin-'nérd)", also called as "Pronounced" (1973), by the band Lynyrd Skynyrd, formed by Ronnie Van Zant, Gary Rossington, Allen Collins, Ed King, Billy Powell, Bob Burns and Leon Wilkeson.
Lyrics:
If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be travelling on, now,
'Cause there's too many places I've 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 can't change.
Bye, bye, its been a sweet love.
Though this feeling I can't change.
But please don't take it 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 can't change.
Lord help me, I can't change.
"If I leave here tomorrow- would you still remember me?" Billy- we'll never forget you along with the other members already left this earth~ RIP Billy Powell, along with the rest of the members Lynyrd Skynyrd has lost.One of the best songs ever- in my opinion!The lyrics say a lot- & the tune is awesome even for as long as it is! Tattooed freebird on my arm for all this song means to me-May the Creator be with those left behind~jam on in heaven!!!
