a Southern man don't need him around any how ... @dirtysouwfdawg

That's just not a potent rebuttal.

"Alabama, you've got a weight on your shoulder that's breaking your back. Your Cadillac has got a wheel in the ditch, and a wheel on the track"

Not exactly an evenly matched war of words.

"My own song 'Alabama' richly deserved the shot Lynyrd Skynyrd gave me with their great record. I don't like my words when I listen to it. They are accusatory and condescending, not fully thought out, and too easy to misconstrue."

I've linked this Drive By Truckers spoken word bit, but it's a great take on Neil Young, Bear Bryant and George Wallace.

After the fact retraction to keep peace. Neil was impulsive but pragmatic. There was nothing to be gained by a prolonged war of words with a popular schlock band.

I dont like my words when I read them. They are accusatory and condescending, not fully thought out, and too easy to misconstrue.
