Lyrics
j.j. cale
Call me the breeze
I keep blowin' down the road
Well now they call me the breeze
I keep blowin' down the road
I ain't got me nobody
I don't carry me no load
Ain't no change in the weather
Ain't no changes in me
Well there ain't no change in the weather
Ain't no changes in me
And i ain't hidin' from nobody
Nobody's hidin' from me
Oh, that's the way its supposed to be
Well i got that green light baby
I got to keep movin' on
Well i got that green light baby
I got to keep movin' on
Well i might go out to california
Might go down to georgia
I don't know
Well i dig you georgia peaches
Makes me feel right at home
Well now i dig you georgia peaches
Makes me feel right at home
But i don't love me no one woman
So i can't stay in georgia long
Well now they call me the breeze
I keep blowin' down the road
Well now they call me the breeze
I keep blowin' down the road
I ain't got me nobody
I don't carry me no load
Oooh mr breeze
Song & Lyrics Facts
"Gimme Three Steps" is a song by American Southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd, released on their debut album (Pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd) in 1973. The song was written by Ronnie Van Zant and Allen Collins.
It has become one of the group's most popular songs and an enduring classic in the southern rock genre. The lyrics tell the story of a man who walks into a bar and finds his girlfriend dancing with another man. He asks her to leave with him, but she refuses unless he gives her three steps to get away from the other man. The song features Gary Rossington on guitar and Billy Powell on keyboards, while Leon Wilkeson provides backing vocals. "Call Me the Breeze", also from Pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd, was written by J.J. Cale and recorded by Lynyrd Skynyrd as a B-side for the single "Gimme Three Steps". Both songs have been covered by several artists over the years, including John Mayer and Eric Clapton.
