Neil Young - Songs for Judy (Intro) lyrics
[Neil Young - Songs for Judy Intro lyrics]
I just have this song I gotta
Sing for you i finally think
I found it oh I know
All those old songs, really
I still know "The Changes"
And sometimes I feel
Like a green Wurlitzer i love it when
Ya, you know, when you ask me for
Those old songs and everything but
It's funny 'cause what keeps you alive
Is what kills you you know, and you get -
Too much of the old shit you know, uh
Good night
So here's a song I wrote especially for you
Especially you loud boisterous
Mothers out there
I can hear ya just pretend you can hear
That old pool hall clankin'
In the background
I know you can relate to this song
It's a song I wrote about
Myself it's called "Too Far
Gone" even though there've been -
Maybe nine songs with
The same title in the last two years
I don't let things like that bother
Me if I'm too far gone I
Got the right to say it, right?
Okay just checkin' with ya it's 'cause of
This abyss here it's 'cause of
This hole between us that I have
To keep re - re-affirming ourselves, ya know
Like I sh- Here we go anyway i
Was gonna tell you somethin', about, i
Was gonna tell you somethin', but -
Okay alright I'll tell ya okay
Then I'll do the song we'll
Be here a long time okay
That's not it that's not it just think of
This as George burns his cigar when I
Look down here in the pit, when I
Did an earlier show tonight, I just
Wanna tell you that uh, i don't know if
Any other artists who ever play here, I
Use the word, uh, loosely, uh
Before has told you
This, but uh, down in the pit there uh
Right down in here can I have
A little light on that
So that people can see? Uh
Can you light up the
Pit please? Well anyway I
Wanna tell ya folks
You don't have to be able to
See me to hear what
I'm saying what I'm gonna tell
You is I saw Judy
Garland down there tonight earlier
She was wearing
A red dress, with red lipstick, and
She had some, yeah uh, little bit of
Music with her right here uh, one of those
Music folios, it said "Somewhere
Over the rainbow"
Had a picture of her as a little
Girl looking up at me with the blue
Sky behind her, and there she was
Judy Garland in a red dress with a
Piece of music and she looked up
And she said "How's the business Neil?"
You don't have to believe me
Sing for you i finally think
I found it oh I know
All those old songs, really
I still know "The Changes"
And sometimes I feel
Like a green Wurlitzer i love it when
Ya, you know, when you ask me for
