what Southern Rock was all about

CCR is to Southern Rock as Buck Owens' 'Bakersfield sound' was to Country

Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch
Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singin'
Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door

There's a giant doin' cartwheels, a statue wearin' high heels
Look at all the happy creatures dancin' on the lawn
Dinosaur Victrola, listenin' to Buck Owens
Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door

posting those lyrics from "Lookin' Out My Back Door." Such good lyrics.

Btw, CCR's sound led Allan Clarke of the Hollies to do "Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress" (which is my favorite Hollies song) as I've mentioned here: https://democraticunderground.com/10181698026
