What does this song lyric mean?

Question

I hope Neil Young will remember. A Southern man don't need him around anyhow. What does that mean? And is Neil Young the same Young as Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young?

Answer 1

Lynard Skynard...Sweet Home Alabama. Also redone by Kid Rock whom I personally like to hear do this song.

Southern Man


Southern man
better keep your head
Don't forget
what your good book said
Southern change
gonna come at last
Now your crosses
are burning fast
Southern man

I saw cotton
and I saw black
Tall white mansions
and little shacks.
Southern man
when will you
pay them back?
I heard screamin'
and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long?

Southern man
better keep your head
Don't forget
what your good book said
Southern change
gonna come at last
Now your crosses
are burning fast
Southern man

Lily Belle,
your hair is golden brown
I've seen your black man
comin' round
Swear by God
I'm gonna cut him down!
I heard screamin'
and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long?

Answer 3

Easy..Neil Young wrote a song "southern man" based on his opinion about blacks....Skynyrd wrote a response to his song in "sweet home alabama" by saying I hope Neil Young will remember a southern man don't need him around...because well, if you've ever heard Southern Man you'd understand the comment..it's kinda like saying..."Thanks for your opinion....Neil...now shut the **** up."
