All I Can Do Is Write About It - Allen Collins, Ronnie VanZant

    Well this life that I've lead has took me everywhere
    There ain't no place I ain't never gone
    But its kind of like the saying that you heard so many times
    Well there just ain't no plae like home
    Did you ever see a she-gator protect her young
    Or a fish in a river swimming free
    Did you ever see the beauty of the hills of Carolina
    Or the sweetness of the grass in Tennessee
    And Lord I can't make any changes
    All I can do is write 'em in a song
    I can see the concrete slowly creepin'
    Lord take me and mine before that comes

    Do you like to see a mountain stream a-flowin'
    Do you like to see a youngun with his dog
    Did you ever stop to think about, well, the air your breathin'
    Well you better listen to my song
    And Lord I can't make any changes
    All I can do is write 'em in a song
    I can see the concrete slowly creepin'
    Lord take me and mine before that comes

    I'm not tryin' to put down no big cities
    But the things they write about us is just a bore
    Well you can take a boy out of ol' Dixieland
    But you'll never take ol' Dixie from a boy
    And Lord I can't make any changes
    All I can do is write 'em in a song
    I can see the concrete slowly creepin'
    Lord take me and mine before that comes
    'Cause I can see the concrete slowly creepin'
    Lord take me and mine before that comes
