G
Well, the train to Grinder's Switch is runnin' right on time
G
And them Tucker Boys are cookin' down in Caroline
C
People down in Florida can't be still
G
When ol' Lynyrd Skynrd's pickin' down in Jacksonville
D
People down in Georgia come from near and far
C G
To hear Richard Betts pickin' on that red guitar
[Chorus]
G
So gather 'round, gather 'round chillin'
G
Get down, well just get down chillin'
C G
Get loud, well you can be loud and be proud
G
Well you can be proud, hear now
D
Be proud you're a rebel
C G
'Cause the South's gonna do it again and again
