“…cuz the South’s gonna to do it again.”

But man, that song rocks, especially the end. In a, you know, country way.

    Allmans are great. I grew up loving Skynyrd, but I can’t really listen to most of it anymore. Check out “Play it all night long” by Warren Zevon for a pretty brutal mockery of “Sweet home Alabama”.

      I’m REALLY looking forward to that! I’ve liked Warren Zevon ever since Linda Ronstadt recorded “Poor poor pitiful me.” And who doesn’t like “Werewolves of London?”

        For real! Every time sweet home alabama comes on the radio I pause for a second to see if it’s:

        “the good one (Warewolves),”

        “the ok one (sweet home),”

        or “the bad one (that fucking kid rock abortion).”

        It’s usually not the good one.
