- 'Can't You See' Marshall Tucker Band. From 'Marshall Tucker Band' (1973) Starting out in South Carolina, the Marshall Tucker Band (not a man like so many people want to believe) still tour regularly, and one of their biggest hits ‘Can’t You See’ still gets serious airplay.
- 'Sweet Home Alabama' Lynyrd Skynyrd. From 'Second Helping' (1974) If Birmingham has an anthem, hopefully this is it. Lynyrd Skynyrd, led by the late songwriter Ronnie Van Zant, may have a redneck image but it shouldn’t over-shadow the fact that Van Zant was a real rocker that wrote down to earth lyrics with a rebellious spirit.
- 'Green Grass & High Tides' The Outlaws. From 'The Outlaws' (1975) The Outlaws formed in Tampa, Florida in 1972, and after hitting the road for some intense touring, were the first act signed to Arista records by legendary guru Clive Davis.
- 'Highway Song' Blackfoot. From: 'Strikes' (1979) If there were ever the perfect song for the all the truckers out there, this one’s it. Featuring an absolutely blistering guitar solo, ‘Highway Song’ has enough adrenalin to keep you awake even on the longest of rides.

Floridian band Lynyrd Skynyrd, famous for their long hair and ripped-up jeans, loved to record their southern rock hits like ‘Free Bird’ and ‘That Smell’ at the iconic Muscle Shoals studios in Sheffield, Alabama. Other famous rockers like The Rolling Stones recorded there as well. With their signature hit ‘Sweet Home Alabama,’ which many could argu...
“Another day, another dollar, after I’ve sang and hollered.’ Bandmate Rickey Medlocke began writing lyrics for ‘Highway Song’ while traveling from one gig to the next on Route 81 between Virginia and New Jersey. The song encompasses the lonely, tough road many rockers travel while promoting records, and the third verse contains single lines like “W...
South Carolina group, The Marshall Tucker Band, released many hits, but none other is as recognizable as their tune ‘Can’t You See.’ Lyrics feature a protagonist lamenting on his woman who treats him poorly, and while lead singer Doug Gray generally does vocals for the band, listeners hear lead guitarist Toy Caldwell’s raspy pipes for this hit. Rec...
Survivor bandmate Jim Peterik was paired up with members of 38 Special for a co-writing session after his band scored multiple hits thanks to his songwriting chops. During his first session with 38 Special, he was extremely nervous, but that didn’t stop him from throwing out ideas. Soon after they began brainstorming, 38 Special’s guitarist Jeff Ca...
Dickey Betts, the Allman Brothers’ guitarist and one of their songwriters, penned ‘Ramblin’ Man’ about his life growing up with constant traveling. The song’s title is a nod to Hank Williams, who released a song by the same name. The character in the song is a bit of a loner and takes life day by day as he travels to different towns (we include it ...
Appearing in countless TV shows and films like King of the Hill and Dukes of Hazzard (the Johnny Knoxville movie installment), ‘Flirtin’ with Disaster’ became Molly Hatchet’s best-known song. The hard-driving single was the only one released from the album of the same name. The tune was so well-received it stayed at the top of the charts for ten we...
“If you wanna get to heaven, you’ve got to raise a little hell.” Hard-partying rock group, The Ozark Mountain Daredevils, shoot it straight when singing about their life philosophy to listeners. A driving song about partying it up and raising Cain, the single became their first hit. Their more eclectic track, ‘Jackie Blue,’ was released in ’75 and ...
While bandmate Henry Paul generally wrote real-world lyrics rooted in accuracy, The Outlaws’ hit ‘Green Grass and High Tides’ contains a more mystical, multi-dimensional feel. The song’s name is a tribute to The Rolling Stones, who had put out a best hits album with a similar name. The song pays homage to the great rockers who came before them, lik...
Country icon Charlie Daniels announces southern rock’s rise to international fame with ‘The South’s Gonna Do It Again.’ Mentioning now-legendary bands like Marshall Tucker Band and Lynyrd Skynyrd in the song, Daniels actually worked with those acts and many more before they reached stardom. The track represents the brotherhood Daniels felt with his...
Written by Lincoln Chase and first released by vocalist Laverne Baker, Black Oak Arkansas’ later success with their recording of ‘Jim Dandy’ was a bit serendipitous. Lead singer Jim Mangrum had been going by the stage name Jim Dandy for years and thought the song was a perfect fit for the band. Their track features Jim and vocalist Ruby Starr tradi...
