Lynyrd Skynyrd - Sweet Home Alabama
Big wheels keep on turning
Carry me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the Southland
I miss Alabamy once again
And I think its a sin, yes
Well I heard mister Young sing about her
Well, I heard ole Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don't need him around anyhow
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet Home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you ...........
What did Neil Young sing that raised the ire of L. S. ? Anyone know?

Southern man
better keep your head
Don't forget
what your good book said
Southern change
gonna come at last
Now your crosses
are burning fast
Southern man
I saw cotton
and I saw black
Tall white mansions
and little shacks.
Southern man
when will you
pay them back?
I heard screamin'
and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long?
Southern man
better keep your head
Don't forget
what your good book said
Southern change
gonna come at last
Now your crosses
are burning fast
Southern man
Lily Belle,
your hair is golden brown
I've seen your black man
comin' round
Swear by God
I'm gonna cut him down!
I heard screamin'
and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long?

Truman thank you for reminding me of his birthday
I idolized Neil Young and CSN&Y as a kid growing up.
If I may add a little trivia here, the song Southern Man was on a Neil Young solo album, After the Gold Rush, awesome album. Im not sure of the date, but it was sometime in the early 1970's.
At 13 I was most fortunate to see for my very first concert ever Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City. It was my first and last time in Jersey City. My mom got me the tickets. What a surprise.
The concert was awesome. When I heard Neil Young sing and I cried. I was only 13
Years later as an adult, i saw Neil Young and Crazy Horse in the USF Sun Dome. They played all electric, but if you are anything like me Tru, you enjoy Neil Young's acoustic music.
If you find it please post the song After the Gold Rush. I already have Harvest. IF 420 was a motto back then it surely would have been mine. lol I was an early bird when it comes to experimentation. lol
Happy birthday Neil Young!

Or maybe she just has a cat named Poo. ... :-\
