[Intro]
I wanna send this out to, uh, all of y'all
In this community
This song's about how rock and roll saved my life as a teenager
Every damn word of this song is true
[Verse 1]
Dropped acid, Blue Oyster Cult concert, fourteen years old
And I thought them lasers were a spider chasing me
Made my way home, I got pulled over in Rogersville, Alabama
With a half-ounce of weed and a case of Sterling Big Mouth
My buddy Gene was driving, he just barely turned sixteen
And I'd like to say, "I'm sorry", but I ain't sorry for a goddamn thing I've ever done in my entire motherfuckin' life
'Cause I lived to tell about it
And I plan on livin' to do much more crazy, fucked-up shit
[Chorus]
And I never saw Lynyrd Skynyrd, but I sure saw Molly Hatchet
With .38 Special and the Johnny Van Zant Band
[Verse 2]
When I was seventeen, I drank a fifth of vodka
On an empty stomach, then I drove over to a friend's house
And I backed my car between his parents' Cadillacs without a scratch
And crawled to the back door and slithered through the mail hole
And I sneaked up them stairs, puked in the toilet
And I passed out and nearly drowned but his sister, Deedee, pulled me out
[Chorus]
And I never saw Lynyrd Skynyrd, but I sure saw Molly Hatchet
And the band that I was in played "The Boys are Back in Town"
[Verse 3]
And Skynyrd was set to play in Huntsville, Alabama
In the spring of '77, I had my ticket, but it got cancelled
And they said, "Hang on to your ticket stub, young man, and have no fear
Because the show has been rescheduled
For the "Street Survivors Tour"
And as we all know, the rest is history
[Chorus]
So I never saw Lynyrd Skynyrd, but I sure saw Ozzy Osbourne
With Randy Rhoads in '82 right before that plane crash
And I never saw Lynyrd Skynyrd, but I sure saw AC/DC
Bon Scott singing, "Let There Be Rock Tour"
With Bon Scott singing, "Let There Be Rock Tour"
With Bon Scott singing, Let There Be Rock
[Outro]
All the love in Richmond, Virginia, we wanna hear you motherfuckers rock
Thank you so much
Drive-By Truckers released Let There Be Rock (Live) on Tue Jul 13 2021.
