Originally formed in 1964 as the "Noble Five" in Jacksonville, Florida, the band rose to worldwide recognition on the basis of its driving live performances and signature tunes "Sweet Home Alabama," and "Free Bird." At the peak of their success, three members died in an airplane crash in 1977, putting an abrupt end to the band's most popular incarnation. more »

Have you ever lived down in the ghetto 
Have you ever felt the cold wind blow 
If you don't know what I mean 
Won't you stand up and scream 
'Cause there's things goin' on that you don't know

Ask them why they spend lives across the ocean 
Ask them why they spend millions on the moon 
Well, until they make things right 
Lots of people gonna be uptight 
They better make some changes pretty soon

They gonna ruin the air that we breathe why'all 
They gonna ruin us all bye and bye 
Telling all you beware 
I don't think they really care 
Think they just sit up there and just get high

Have you ever lived down in the ghetto 
Have you ever felt the cold wind blow 
If you don't know what I mean 
Won't you stand up and scream 
'Cause there's things goin' on that you don't know

If you don't know what I mean 
Won't you stand up and scream 
'Cause there's things goin' on that you don't know
