Freebird

On their Gold and Platinum album Lynyrd Skynyrd produced a song titled Free bird. It is a very popular song that turned out to be a big hit all over the country. It was written by band members Allen Collins and Ronnie VanZant. I think that this is a very good song with good lyrics that display a lot of meaning. Lynyrd Skynyrd is a southern rock band that has been very popular throughout the late nineteen hundreds. They have produced many songs on many different albums. Songs that come to my mind are What's Your Name, Simple Man, Sweet Home Alabama, and this song Free bird. The two main people of this band, or should I say most powerful members were Allen Collins, and Ronnie VanZant. They did a majority of the song writing and seemed to be the two always in the spotlight. One of my favorite songs they produced was Free bird. I have two ideas of what I think this song means. The first one is that I think it is about a guy who is leaving his girlfriend. He says, I must be traveling on now because there's too many places I've got to see. It seems to me that he wants to go because there is other things he wants to do. He wants to be a free man and get away. He also says, that if I stay with you girl things just couldn't be the same. He states that he is free as a bird now and this bird you can not change. The way I kind of understand it is that maybe he has a problem and she don't like it and wants him to change, but he knows he cannot

. I think he comes to believe that the only way to solve the problem is if he just leaves and lives his own life as he wants to. I believe that goes to show why he says he is a free bird that she can not change. Another way I interpreted it, was as a one-night stand and he was talking about what would happen the next day when he has to leave. I think he might like her, but cannot

change. By changing I think he cannot

just settle down and be with someone he loves. I think he is too into the one-night stand thing and cannot

change his lifestyle be dedicated to having a girl friend. When he says he is a free as bird, maybe that is how he is now and he likes it to much to change. I think he wants to change by observing some of the words. He says, Lord help me, I cannot

change. I think maybe he realizes that some day he is going to want a family and will want to settle down. He will not be able to do that while
