One Thing

(Gary Rossington, JohnnyVan-Zant, Ed King, Dale Krantz-Rossington, Custer)
 I met the man, when I was fifteen
 Seen him in all the papers, on T.V. and magazines
 So I had to ask him, what's the difference between
 Those who make a wish, those who spin wheels
 And those who ride in white limosines like you, mister
 Won't you tell me one thing
 Some have the passion and they control the ride
 Some settle for whatever happens
 As years pass they see their lives just slip on by
 The world keeps a' turnin'
 It'll leave you behind
 Nothin' else matters, nothin's worth learnin'
 Until the dream you have inside
 (chorus)
 It's the one thing, the one thing there's no denyin'
 So find yourself a dream and some piece of mind
 'Cause money and power won't buy it
 It's the one thing, nothin' else matters
 And somewhere you might have heard the good times are through
 And good luck is somethin' you're born with
 I know it just ain't true
 The world keeps a' turnin'
 I wouldn't tell you no lie
 Nothin' else matters, nothin's worth learnin'
 Until the dream that you have inside
 (repeat chorus)
 Nothin' else matters
