The Freebird Fell - Billy Ray Cyrus

I was just a teenage boy on my way to school

Mama mad at me for me 'cause I turned on the news

Details still uncertain as I put on my shoes

Wasn’t sure what happened but I knew I had the blues

Cause that’s the day the freebird fell

Oh, I remember it well

So many cried when Ronnie died

He never said farewell

What he’d say in a southern song

Stories told still here long

The day the freebird fell

Pulled myself together and I went on my way

Missed the bus on purpose so I could walk that day

Tuesday’s Gone and Simple Man Play on in my mind

Sweet Home Alabama, Curtis Loew and One More Time

'Cause that’s the day the freebird fell

Oh, I remember it well

So many cried when Ronnie died

He never said farewell

What he’d say in a southern song

Stories told still here long

The day the freebird fell

Freebird fell

Freebird fell

Many years have come and gone, a lot of things have changed

Father time has passed me by one thing stayed the same

When I’m feeling lonely, when I’m feeling blue

I crank up some of that good ol' honkey, Lord I think of you

Back to the day the freebird fell

Oh, I remember it well

So many cried when Ronnie died

He never said farewell

What he’d say in a southern song

Stories told still here long

The day the freebird fell

Freebird fell

Gimme three steps, you got that right

Ooh that smell

Simple man was comin' home

The day the freebird fell

I was just a teenage boy on my way to school
