Neil Young, Crazy Horse - Falling from Above lyrics
[Neil Young, Crazy Horse - Falling from Above lyrics]
Grandpa said to cousin jed
Sitting on the porch "i won't retire
But i might retread
Seems like that guy singing this song
Been doing it for a long time
Is there anything he knows
That he ain't said? Sing a song for freedom
Sing a song for love
Sing a song for depressed angels
Falling from above" grandpa held the paper
Pretending he could see
But he couldn't read without his glasses on
"how can all these people
Afford so many things? When i was young
People wore what they had onand mama said
'a little love and affection
In everything you do
Will make the world a better place
With or without you'"
A little love and affection
In everything you do
Slamming down a late night shot
The hero and the artist compared
Goals and visions and afterthoughts
For the 21st century
But mostly came up with nothing
So the truth was never learned
And the human race just kept rolling on
Rolling through the fighting
Rolling through the religious wars
Rolling down the temple walls
And the church's exposed sores
Rolling through the fighting
The religious wars
Mostly came up with nothing
"grandpa here's your glasses
You'll see much better now"
Said that young girl of edith and earl's
But grandpa just kept staring
He was lost in some distant thought
Then he turned and said to that young girl
With or without you a better place
With or without you with or without you
Hear that rooster crowing
Down on the double e it's a new morning
Dawning on the green bouncing off the towers
And the sun's heading down for the streets
The business meeting window shades are drawn
Another morning edition headed for the porch
Because grandma puts down the paper
Before grandpa raises his fork
Hear the rooster crowing
Down on the double e
Sitting on the porch "i won't retire
But i might retread
Seems like that guy singing this song
Been doing it for a long time
Is there anything he knows
That he ain't said? Sing a song for freedom
Sing a song for love
Sing a song for depressed angels
Falling from above" grandpa held the paper
Pretending he could see
But he couldn't read without his glasses on
"how can all these people
Afford so many things? When i was young
People wore what they had onand mama said
'a little love and affection
In everything you do
Will make the world a better place
With or without you'"
A little love and affection
In everything you do
Slamming down a late night shot
The hero and the artist compared
Goals and visions and afterthoughts
For the 21st century
But mostly came up with nothing
So the truth was never learned
And the human race just kept rolling on
Rolling through the fighting
Rolling through the religious wars
Rolling down the temple walls
And the church's exposed sores
Rolling through the fighting
The religious wars
Mostly came up with nothing
"grandpa here's your glasses

Said that young girl of edith and earl's

With or without you with or without you

And the sun's heading down for the streets

Another morning edition headed for the porch
