Vote for all the songs you think are good. Maybe you have some other songs that you think should be included? Go ahead and post those as well.

Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, BTO and Van Halen for me.
Some more southern rock songs you could include are:
Allman Brothers - Just Ain't Easy
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Ain't No Good Life
Marshall Tucker Band - You Ain't Foolin' Me
Molly Hatchet - Ain't Even Close
Outlaws - Ain't So Bad

Sucks that you can only vote for one at a time. I guess simply listing them would be easier, but still kind of a PITA. Good amount of suggestions so far. I don't know any by title but will definitely check them out.

a nasty venereal disease on those who vote for the Rolling Stones version...

I really enjoy "Ain't Talkin 'bout Love", "It Ain't Like That", and "Rock and Roll Ain't Noise Pollution".
My favorite is probably the AC/DC track.
