Neil Young - The Ballad of Peggy Grover (Elektra Audition 1965) lyrics
[Neil Young - The Ballad of Peggy Grover Elektra Audition 1965 lyrics]
Young Pegi just died today
Young Pegi just died today
And I guess nobody even knows the case
But the way the story goes
She just ran out of clothes
No will this world just for the peg down
Last words, can't talk and then she wrote
Some people can't stand no rain
Some people can't stand no rain
When it's cloudy outside
You can't see the sun
But on a bright and sunny day
The people all go away except one
Oh no don't pity me babe
I know I'm alright o yeah, I'm alright
Don't see no tears around me
Don't see no tears around me
I don't take too much stock
In the things people say
I'm not saying that they're wrong
They've just been standing around too long
Gone bad oh no, don't pity me babe
I know I'm alright o yeah, I'm alright
Can't ride my broom no more
Can't ride my broom no more
'Cause the landlady's taken
To sweeping the floor
I guess I'll go back to my place
And occupy a little space john Doe
Oh no, don't pity me babe
I know I'm alright o yeah, I'm alright
The streets are crammed, can't walk
Might find somebody and talk
I can't find nobody who say boo, guess who
'Cause that street is paved with aires
And everybody is putting on theirs
Can't breathe oh no, don't pity me babe
I know I'm alright o yeah, I'm alright
He's standing outside my door
He's standing outside my door
But he won't ring the bell
And he's just to scared to knock
And he's puzzled and he's young
And he's doing what's already been done
One more oh no, don't pity me babe
I know I'm alright o yeah, I'm alright
Oh no, don't pity me babe
I know I'm alright
Young Pegi just died today
And I guess nobody even knows the case
But the way the story goes
She just ran out of clothes
No will this world just for the peg down
Last words, can't talk and then she wrote
Some people can't stand no rain
Some people can't stand no rain
When it's cloudy outside
You can't see the sun
But on a bright and sunny day
The people all go away except one
Oh no don't pity me babe
I know I'm alright o yeah, I'm alright
Don't see no tears around me
Don't see no tears around me
I don't take too much stock
In the things people say
I'm not saying that they're wrong
They've just been standing around too long
Gone bad oh no, don't pity me babe
I know I'm alright o yeah, I'm alright
Can't ride my broom no more
Can't ride my broom no more
'Cause the landlady's taken
To sweeping the floor
I guess I'll go back to my place
And occupy a little space john Doe
Oh no, don't pity me babe
