Ronnie and Neil

Church blows up in Birmingham Four little black girls killed for no goddamn good reason All this hate and violence can't come to no good end A stain on the good name A whole lot of good people Dragged threw the blood and glass Blood stains on their good names And all of us take the blame Meanwhile in North Alabama Wilson Pickett comes to town To record that sweet soul music To get that Muscle Shoals sound Meanwhile in North Alabama Aretha Franklin comes to town To record that sweet soul music To that Muscle Shoals sound And out in California, a rock star from Canada Wrote a couple of great songs about the bad shit that went down "Southern Man" and "Alabama" certainly told some truth There's a lot of good folks down here, Neil Young just wasn't around Meanwhile in North Alabama Lynyrd Skynyrd comes to town To record with Jimmy Johnson At Muscle Shoals Sound And they met some real fine people Not no racist pieces of shit And they wrote a song about it And that song became a hit Ronnie and Neil, Ronnie and Neil Rock stars today ain't half as real Speaking there minds on how they feel Let them guitars blast for Ronnie and Neil Ronnie and Neil became good friends Their feud was just in song Skynyrd was a bunch of Neil Young fans And Neil he loved that song So he wrote "Powderfinger" For Skynyrd to record But old Ronnie ended up singing "Sweet Home Alabama" to the Lord And Neil holded Ronnie In his casket to the ground And to my way of thinking Us southern men still need both of them around Ronnie and Neil, Ronnie and Neil Rock stars today ain't half as real Speaking their minds on how they feel Let them guitars blast for Ronnie and Neil Ronnie and Neil, Ronnie and Neil Rock stars today ain't half as real Speaking their minds on how they feel Let them guitars blast for Ronnie and Neil Let them guitars blast for Ronnie and Neil Let them guitars blast for Ronnie and Neil
