Dolly Parton just covered this song on her new R& R album. And I have to admit
I cried when I heard it. I can't tell you why. It just hit me at an emotional level. The words, the instrumentals and the fact that she was singing it.
My son was listening with me and had never heard of Free Bird.
I agree that technically the song meaning was probably written as a "I can't take you with me; you'll just be in the way" kind of song, but I could never relate to it in that way.
It is such a relatable song. Besides the fact, that it is also like a good bye song to those lost when their plane went down.
