Well the train’s a-grindin’ switches - runnin’ right on time

And the Tucker boys are cookin’ down in Caroline

People down in Florida can’t be still

When Ol’ Lynyrd Skynyrd’s pickin’ down in Jacksonville

People down in Georgia come from near and far

To hear Richard Betts pickin’ on that red guitar

So gather ‘round...

Gather ‘round, children; get down.

Well, just get down, children; get loud.

Well, you can be loud here and be proud.

And you can be proud here. Now be proud you’re a Rebel

‘Cause the South’s gonna do it again...

And again.



Elvin Bishop’s settin’ on a bale of hay;

He ain’t good lookin’, but he sure can play.

And there’s ZZ Top, and, you can’t forget

That ol’ brother Bill’s gettin’ soakin’ wet.

And all the good people down in Tennessee

Are diggin’ Barefoot Jerry and the C.D.B..

Gather ‘round...

Gather ‘round, children; get down.

Well, you can get down, children; get loud.

Well, you can get loud here and be proud.

And you can be proud here. Be proud you’re a Rebel

‘Cause the South’s gonna do it again...

Yes, it is.
