Neil Young, Crazy Horse - Be the Rain lyrics
[Neil Young, Crazy Horse - Be the Rain lyrics]
"attention shoppers
Buy with a conscience and save"
Save the planet for another day
"save alaska! let the caribou stay"
Don't care what the governments say
"they're all bought and paid for anyway"
Save the planet for another day
"hey big oil, what do you say?"
We were running through the night
Never knowing if we would see the light
Paranoid schizophrenic visions
Living in fear of the wrong decisions
We got to wake up we got to keep going
If they follow us there's no way of knowing
We got a job to do we got to
Save mother earth
Be the ocean when it meets the sky
"you can make a difference
If you really try"
Be the magic in the northern lights
"six dayssix nights"
Be the river as it rolls along
"it has three eyed fish
And it's smelling strong"
Be the rain you remember falling
"be the rain, be the rain"
Yeah rain was falling and we're soaking wet
Hail is beating down on our heads
The wind is blowing through our hair
Faces frozen in the frigid air
We got to get there alaska
We got to be there before the big machines
We got a job to do we got to
Save mother earth
Dream the hunter on the western plain
"the birds are all gone
Where did they go?"
Dream the fisherman in his boat
"he's coming home empty
He's barely afloat"
Dream the logger in the great northwest
"they're running out of trees
They got to give it a rest"
(there's no other way to cut it)
Dream the farmer in the old heartland
"corporate greed and chemicals are
Killing the land"
Next morning sun was up at dawn
She looked around and earth was gone
Dark visions he had last night
He needed peace, he needed light
He heard the rumble and
He saw the big machines the green army rose
It was a bad dream he had a job to do
He had to save mother earth
Be the ocean when it meets the sky
"greek freighters are dumping crap
Somewhere right now"
Be the magic in the northern lights
"the ice is melting!"
Be the river as it rolls along
"toxic waste dumping from corporate farms"
Be the rain you remember falling
"be the rain, be the rain"
Save the planet for another day
"be the rain, be the rain"
Be the river as it rolls along
"be the rain, be the rain"
