I originally thought that Velvet Underground was Velvet Revolver, then came to my senses after realizing there was no way in hell Yella would put Velvet Revolver on this list.

I own all the classic GNR albums and was thinking of buy some recently released STP reissues cut AAA and 2 x 45 rpm.
But yeah, fuck Velvet Revolver. Meh.
 
if forced to choose id probably take Ballroom Blitz followed by Little Willy followed by Fox on the Run.
They didn’t even get a hat on the table

I too like the songs by the group Sweet, but those don't fit the spirit of the question. I think Sweet Pea by Tommy Roe deserves a mention.
 
Personal fave is Sweet Leaf but I realize it’s not exactly a crossover hit. One of the greatest and easiest guitar riffs of all time
 
You guys are all nuts. Sweet Leaf pummels the competition. The comically simple riff which they change up by adding an overdub and cranking the amps, the comically dumb lyrics, and the breakdown jam session where Bill Ward sounds like he's a giant octopus wrecking his kit...this song fucking rocks.
Skynyrd lol. There's entertainingly dumb like Sabbath or ACDC, then there's just plain dumb. Nuff said.

So comically simple it was sampled for the most brilliantly dumb record off all time.
Sweet Leaf and When the Levee Breaks in one song? Can't miss hit.

I was too young to really know any Led or Sabbath, but this was right in my early teen wheelhouse. I didn't really know why I liked this so much at the time.

Sounds like you used to be a lot cooler.
