Top Ten Southern Rock Songs You Could Never Tire of Listening To

Southern rock....so damned infectious! I've chosen my personal favourites but love many more. If there are any of your favourites I've missed, feel free to add; or vote for an existing favourite.
The Top Ten
1 Born On the Bayou - Creedence Clearwater Revival

Drew and a few other hand in my room to the great thing that is what I want a ride Russia has been the only thing is that a few days and I can do a lot of things I can do

Straight heat

2 Keep Your Hands to Yourself - Georgia Satellites

Rock. And. Roll. The real kind.

3 Green Grass & High Tides - The Outlaws
4 Keep on Smilin' - Wet Willie

Now here's a case study in lack of awareness. Been intimately familiar with this cut for more than forty years. It's practically a personal theme. And it never hit me 'til this moment how much it was influenced by Van the Man. 'Ppears I been slippin' for quite some time (sigh).

5 Ain't Wastin' Time No More - Allman Brothers
6 Fooled Around And Fell In Love - Elvin Bishop
7 I'm No Angel - The Gregg Allman Band
8 Long Haired Country Boy - Charlie Daniels Band
9 Highway Song - Blackfoot
10 Rad Gumbo - Little Feat

Featured on Road House soundtrack. Such an upbeat, uplifting, feel-good song.

The Contenders
11 Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd

I knew this one would creep in. Great song; although visions of Devil's Rejects are hard to diminish.

12 Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd
13 Keep Your Hands on the Wheel - Ram Jam
14 Stranger in a Strange Land - Leon Russell

Can't believe I forgot this. I love it.

15 La Grange - ZZ Top
16 Southern Man - Neil Young

This is not Southern Rock. This is a Canadian hippie trashing the South.

17 Sharp Dressed Man - ZZ Top
18 Simple Man - Lynyrd Skynyrd
19 Tuesday's Gone - Lynyrd Skynyrd
20 Whippin' Post - Allman Brothers
21 Don't Do It - The Band

Love it! It's very fair to say that I'm wearing a grin from ear to hear :) Also really like this (but not quite as much) by Little Feat.

22 When You're Hot, You're Hot - Jerry Reed
23 Louisiana Flood - Paul Butterfield's Better Days

"Bluer skies and better days." Nice. Very nice.

24 Still Alive and Well - Johnny Winter
25 On a Night Like This - Buckwheat Zydeco

Hot Tamale Baby is amazing also. I can't keep the smile from my face while playing these; they're so happy and uplifting!

You know something? Er. I mean ya know sumpin'? I LOVE this! Seriously, it's gotten totally under my skin, in my head, infected my ears (in a t'riffic way) and made it to the heart of my heart. I'm not sure how much more 'Merican can get under...uh...my belt but I'm havin' a whole lotta fun findin' out, Sir ;).
