Random Page  /  Random Song


From the 1972 \"Harvest album ,\"Alabama\" was \"an unblushing rehash of 'Southern Man' which evokes an \"answer\" verse from the southern rock group Lynyrd Skynyrd. Although the words \"...southern man...\" occur in \"Sweet Home Alabama\", the song of that name may not be the inspiration for the Lynyrd Skynrd song. In his book \"Waging Heavy Peace: A Hippie Dream\" Young stated that Lynyrd Skynyrd wrote \"Sweet Home Alabama\" not in response to \"Southern Man\", but rather to Young's song \"Alabama\". Young noted that Lynyrd Skynyrd's implied criticism was deserved because Young's lyrics to Alabama were condescending and accusatory, that he does not like how he used his words in the song, and the lyrics were not fully thought out and too easy to misconstrue.
