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

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

    I was always surprised that all the biggest Skynyrd fans I knew seemed to know none of the lyrics, because thwy all lived the opposite of them.

    RACISM IS WRONG- The Ballad of Curtis Lowe

    DRUGS AND ALCOHOL ARE BAD- Needle And The Spoon, That Smell

    CAPITALISM SUCKS- Working For MCA

    GUNS ARE BAD - Saturday Night Special

    FIGHTING IS A BAD IDEA- Gimme Three Steps

    Thats all I can remember at the moment, but I should add that Alabama fucking sucks and always has. I know. Trust me.

      Saturday night special is my favorite one to bring up to the “fans”. Like I can see how you don’t necessarily get the others, but how anybody can hear “a handgun is made for killing, ain’t no good for nothing else, so why don’t we take our handguns and throw them to the bottom of the sea” and think that this guy is just another good ol boy is beyond me.
