This is Confederate Railroad's excellent cover to Lynyrd Skynyrd's song "Simple Man." The song couldn't have been better written. To me, it's the one of the best covers of the song, I've ever heard.

This song is from the Skynyrd Frynds Tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd CD. It was released through MCA records in 1996. It has artists such as Hank Williams Jr., Alabama, Wynonna Judd, Steve Earle, Charlie Daniels, and Travis Tritt on it...

If anyone from Confederate Railroad or MCA would like this video taken down, feel free to message me and I shall do as such.

Too bad Queensryche never covered this. ;-)Seriously, if it were anything like 'Scarborough Fair'... good stuff.

This cover takes the cake over Shinedown's and Deftone's in my opinion.

this is a great cover. This is one of those songs I stop and think about once in a while and try to live like this song. I don't need to be rich, just take care of your family.

Nickelback doing Freebird? Man, I'm gonna have musical nightmares now. Metallica does a great version of Tuesday's Gone though...but Metallica and Nickelback are like fresh peaches compared to rotten grapes respectively.

Don't be frettin' if when you play this tune it just don't sound right. This song is tuned down half a step...I use my tuner, but I find if you put a capo on the first fret, tune it to regular E, then take the capo off, it sounds closer. I don't know why.
