Call me the Breeze is of course a song by the maestro himself, JJ Cale. Call me the Breeze has also famously been done by Lynyrd Skynyrd.
So here’s the Lynyrd version of Call me the Breeze, as done live on a British TV show in the early 70s.
Here are the lyrics to the song as well:
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
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
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
Now well, 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
{Repeat First Verse}
Here’s another version of Call me the Breeze, a much more rockin’ version, by Southpaw:
But how could we have something on Call me the Breeze without a version by the great man himself? JJ Cale? Here he is with Eric Clapton:
And that, ladies and gennelmen, is how you play that song.
