Jacaranda Help me out tomorrow Jacaranda Don’t want to be alone Keep falling over a spell that brings me sorrow Give and take, I shouldn’t be afraid So you give me this big story It wakes me every day The challenge is to chase the sounds Just to break away And I’m running, running Yes I’m running A simple peace just can’t be found Waste another day, blasting all their lives away I’ve heard the thunder underground Tunneling away at the very soul of man And I’m running Yes I’m running I’m running through a new world ---

[Yes, Skynrd was a Jacksonville band, and this song strongly alludes to the stench that often comes from the paper mill on the northside…] Whiskey bottles, and brand new cars Oak tree you’re in my way There’s too much coke and too much smoke Look what’s going on inside you Ooooh that smell Can’t you smell that smell Ooooh that smell The smell of death surrounds you Angel of darkness is upon you Stuck a needle in your arm So take another toke, have a blow for your nose And one more drink fool, will drown you Ooooh that smell Can’t you smell that smell Ooooh that smell The smell of death surrounds you Now they call you Prince Charming Can’t speak a word when you’re full of 'ludes Say you’ll be all right come tomorrow But tomorrow might not be here for you ---

The sky was gold, it was rose I was taking sips of it through my nose And I wish I could get back there, someplace back there Smiling in the pictures you would take Doing crystal meth, will lift you up until you break It won’t stop, I won’t come down I keep stock with the tick-tock rhythm, I bump for the drop And then I bumped up, I took the hit that I was given Then I bumped again, then I bumped again I said… How do I get back there, to the place where I fell asleep inside you How do I get myself back to the place where you said… I want something else, to get me through this Semi-charmed kinda life, baby, baby I want something else, I’m not listening when you say good-bye ---

There’ll be Pennies from Heaven for you and me. ---
