Free Bird is a song by Allen Collins and Ronnie Van Zant, and performed by the southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd.
A staple at concerts for many decades is to shout "Play Free Bird" as a joke, likely due to the song's length. In 2006, Tally Hall would learn the song note-by-note for their live concerts because people love shouting it out and they wanted to "teach them a lesson."[1] Tally Hall would perform Free Bird usually at the beginning or in the encore of a concert from 2006 to 2009. After 2009 it was retired from the setlist for unknown reasons.
Lyrics
If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me? For I must be traveling on now 'Cause there's too many places I've got to see But if I stay here with you, girl Things just couldn't be the same 'Cause I'm as free as a bird now And this bird you cannot change Oh, oh, oh, oh And the bird you cannot change And this bird, you cannot change Lord knows, I can't change Bye-bye, baby, it's been sweet love, yeah, yeah Though this feelin' I can't change Please don't take it so badly 'Cause Lord knows, I'm to blame If I stay here with you, girl Things just couldn't be the same 'Cause I'm as free as a bird now And this bird you cannot change Oh, oh, oh, oh And the bird you cannot change And this bird, you cannot change Lord knows, I can't change Lord help me, I can't change Lord, I can't change Won't you fly high, free bird, yeah
