There not sayin' everybody needs to pack heat, but it your right... If you don't like Skynyrd, 'cause that's who they are... Then move on.... There are many references in this cd that pays respect to the fallen brothers... What about the song "Gifted Hands"??? If you don't shed a tear for there/our fallen brother BP, then you ain't a fan.... I'm not dead, at least not yet, Still Alone, Still Alive, STILL UNBROKEN....

I've respected the post-crash band as a celebration of what once was and a nice line of work for the boys involved, but the new record is just stupid. God and Guns? If you wanna write songs like that, please do, but don't call yourself Lynyrd Skynyrd. Ronnie sure was proud of his origins but he was not a stupid redneck. Remember a song called "Saturday Night Special"? Well if u don't here's the lyrics for it. Two feets they come a creepin Like a black cat do And two bodies are lyin naked Creeper think he got nothin to lose So he creeps into this house, yeah And unlocks the door And while a man reaching for his trousers Shoots him full of .38 holes (chorus) Its a saturday night special Got a barrel thats blue and cold Aint no good for nothin But put a man six feet in a hole Big jims been drinkin whiskey And playing poker on a losin night Pretty soon, big jim starts a thinkin Somebody been cheatin and lyin So big jim commences to fightin I wouldnt tell you no lie And big jim done grab his pistol Shot his friend right between the eyes (chorus) Hand guns are made for killin Aint no good for nothin else And if you like your whiskey You might even shoot yourself So why dont we dump em people To the bottom of the sea Before some fool come around here Wanna shoot either you or me And your point? One song is anti hand gun the other is about not losing rights granted us in the constitution. Johnie likes to fish and hunt. . .. .last I checked you don't hunt with a 38. . . . .ya ever see the pic of ronnie holding a gun to someones's head? They all carried back in the day. . . even Ed had a gun. . . .

The lyrics are amazing and I can only imagine the healing journey that the band was on while writing some of these songs. My personal goal is to wear this CD out until I know all of the words (I have a bet with my 9 year old daughter about who will know all of the lyrics 1st!) BTW......can someone please take out the trash and get rid of the negativity from the idiot? Can't we all get along and appreciate what we have? I don't know about you, but my cup runneth over--it's not half empty. Sara Ain't nothing sweeter than a Southern girl!
