"Have you ever listened to Kid Rocks All Summer Long, Werewolves’ of London and Sweet home Alabama?"

Yup, like them all and they all have the same rhythm line. I believe that Warren Zevon unintentionally did it, but Kid Rock was most definitely sampling. He even has an homage line to Skynrd with "Singin Sweet Home Alabama all summer long..." I will say that the emphasis in the beat in Werewolves of London is slightly different. Love the line in that song "I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's, And his hair was perfect."

Kid Rock was legal though because he paid for the privilege by clearing the samples and paying the fees to the Big Media leeches to use the melody/chord structure.
