(Ronnie Van Zant)

"Well when I was a young-un they used to teach me to play music like this here..."



When I look in your face baby

When I look in your eyes

I can tell pretty mama I been wastin' time

'Cause you don't really love me

You just love me for what I am

But you best treat me right, woman

Gonna lose your money man



Well when I first met you baby, you was a red light girl

But I tried to take you to better world

But you would not listen

Still you think I am a fool

Well you had it made in the shade, baby

Don't let that tree fall down on you



Well I work the railroad each and every day

Well I work real hard tryin' to make my pay

Lord I never tell you what you supposed to say

Girl you had it made in the shade

Don't let that tree fall down on you
