Ronnie Van Zant
They were my favorite band
When I was just a kid
They were my helping hand
Through all that I did
When it comes to Skynyrd
What more can I say
A joke on coach Lynyrd
Just swept me away
Ronnie tried to warn us all
About the needle and spoon
How far we would fall
I was hooked way to soon
At the end of it all
I try as hard as I can
For I no longer fall
I’m just a simple man
To my life the greatest
songwriter/composer
That ever lived was
Ronnie Van Zant. For
Brian's contest. The
"Needle & Spoon" & the
song Simple Man had
the greatest influence
on my life. One as a
stupid kid the other as
a wise old man.
