[Verse 1]

I remember you back in 1956

You had all the moves and you knew all the tricks

You left all the ladies in a hell of a fix

When your voice took wing

Then you'd shake around and oh, how you'd sing

Just an old boy from Memphis with a big diamond ring

A country girl's prayer and a city girl's dream

Hail the king


[Chorus]

But it's all right now

Keep on singing loud

It's all right now

Heaven should be proud


[Verse 2]

The fifties left town on a crowded dance floor

The sixties came in with a bang and a roar

The world heard a knock, it was Janis at the door

They let her in

And when it seemed this whole world was falling apart

The house lights would fall and the music would start

She'd be giving us all a piece of her heart

Once again


[Chorus]

But it's all right now

Keep on singing loud

It's all right now

Heaven should be proud


[Verse 3]

It was October in St. Louis town

When we heard that the Free Bird had fell to the ground

And we all said a prayer before we went down

To play

And Ronnie, my buddy above all the rest

I miss you the most and I loved you the best

And now that you're gone, I thank God I was blessed

Just to know you


[Chorus]

But it's all right now

Keep on singing loud

It's all right now

Heaven should be proud
