Lynyrd Skynyrd (pronounced /ˌlɛnərd ˈskɪnərd/ LEN-ərd-SKIN-ərd) is an American rock band best known for popularizing the Southern hard rock genre during the 1970s.

Well sometimes I lose my direction
And sometimes I jump off track
But when I hide out baby, I can always get it back
I need to feel the cool breeze, 
In my face, the rumble of the engine, between my legs
Hey little sister you can color me gone

[Chorus]
So if I want to stay out all night long you can't stop me from runnin wild,
Don't you worry how long I'm gone, I come back every once in a while
I pick em up, and lay em all down
I never like my feet to ever hit the ground
Don't miss when I'm gone 'cause I'll be around, 
I'm a free spirit baby pick me up, and lay me on down

Now I know that I got me a good life, 
Jim Bean, and women they treat me right
I make my own rules, like it or not
Now don't misunderstand me baby, I give in every once in a while, 
Well its times like honey, I'll leave you with a smile

[Chorus]

I've been here, I've been there, I've been everywhere, 
I wouldn't tell you no lies, 
And just like me you're a wild one, 
Won't you take me for a ride
I pick em up, and lay em all down
I don't like my feet to ever hit the ground, 
Don't miss me while I'm gone 'cause I'll be around yeah 
I'm a free spirit baby pick me up, 
And lay me on down
