Because her father beats and molests her and her sisters. She wants to be a bird so she can fly away from the abuse.
//Jenny displays typical behavior for a person that has endured sexual abuse as a child. It is said that, at least with girls, they either end up a 'loose' woman or a nun. This may not be true in every case but it certainly can be. When she prays for God to make her a bird so she could escape her horrible situation Forrest couldn't really understand. In fact, even as an adult, he never really could grasp what had happened to his friend Jenny and how it effected every aspect of her adult life.//

''Fortunate Son'' was the CCR song in the movie ''Forrest Gump''.

No. It's called 'product placement' and is a free source of advertisment. Whether it really increases sales of a particular product has not really been studied.
Forrest never rode his lawn mower across the country. He mowed the University's lawn for free because he was rich and didn't need the money and he enjoyed doing it. He ran across the country I think 3 or 4 times without his mower.

There were many historical events within the 30 year period in the life of Forrest Gump. The advent of TV, Elvis Presley and rock and roll, civil rights and civil unrest in the 1960's. The war in Vietnam, politics and several presidents, space flight, AIDS, the birth of personal computers such as Apple. The movie Forrest Gump has become an American icon with such phrases as 'life is like a box of chocolates', 'run Forrest run', 'stupid is as stupid does', and my favorite, 'sometimes there just aren't enough rocks'.
After striking it rich in the shrimping business, the town fathers of Greenbow offered Forrest the job of cutting the grass on the high school football field. Since he liked doing it so much, and since he was a "gozillionaire", he did the job for free. He also had to cut the large expanse of grass at his own home.
Do you mean, the song that plays when they are in the helicopter, about to land in Vietnam for the first time? If so, the song is, "Fortunate Son," by Creedence Clearwater Revival. If not, then feel free to delete this answer.
John Forrest was never a convict. He was born of free settler parents in Western Australia, so he was always free.
It will run faster than Forest Gump.
