- Free Bird. Album: (pronounced 'lĕh-'nérd 'skin-'nérd) Guitarist Allen Collins came up with the music to Free Bird very early in the band’s songwriting process.
- Sweet Home Alabama. Album: Second Helping. “I knew Sweet Home Alabama was a classic the minute we wrote it,” said guitarist Ed King, who was primarily responsible for the song’s music, most notably its defining riff.
- Simple Man. Album: (pronounced 'lĕh-'nérd 'skin-'nérd) Simple Man, co-written by Ronnie Van Zant and Gary Rossington, has become one of the group’s trademark songs.
- That Smell. Album: Street Survivors. Gary Rossington’s booze and drug fueled exploits inspired Ronnie Van Zant’s lyrics and this song’s dark, rumbling, highway-to-hell attitude – and made the Street Survivors sessions drag on.

- “Free Bird” The enduring rock ballad “Free Bird,” another iconic song from the band’s first album, is pure gold. With its solemn lyrics and throat-tightening guitar solos, the building opus has no doubt left a lasting impact on Southern rock, but also on the rock genre as a whole.
- “Simple Man” “Simple Man” proved Lynyrd Skynyrd’s versatility from the very beginning. Arriving by way of their debut, the gripping offering –with its heartfelt lyrics and sweeping melody– was a departure from the release’s collection of high-energy rock anthems and a shining example of all the Southern rock could be.
- “Sweet Home Alabama” Nothing screams Southern rock quite like “Sweet Home Alabama.” One of the band’s signatures, “Sweet Home Alabama” appeared on their sophomore album, Second Helping, to gift not only a state its anthem but to craft the genre’s catchiest and most enduring hit.
- “Gimme Three Steps” Also from their premiere release (Pronounced ‘Lĕh-‘nérd ‘Skin-‘nérd), the racing rock epic “Gimme Three Steps” is another Southern rock essential.
