Bob Burns (born November 24,1950) is an American drummer who was in the original line-up of the Southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd between 1964 and 1970. He returned from 1973 to 1974. In the early 70s Burns left Lynyrd Skynyrd and went to join the group called Blackfoot. Later on down the road he came back to Lynyrd Skynyrd. On March 13, 2006 he rejoined Lynyrd Skynyrd for one performance as he played alongside Gary Rossington, Billy Powell, Ed King, Artimus Pyle and the Honketts for the first time in 30 years (with the exception of his performance in 1996 to promote "Freebird: The Movie") at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction.

Bob formerly displayed a large tapestry of a tiger in his room that was known to scare his nephews to the point they would not use the bathroom, which was across from his door, while visiting their grandparents.Fact|date=July 2008
