I'm listening to Neil Young, I gotta turn up the sound; Someone's always yelling turn it down
No knife could ever cut our love apart
Now there's spiritual warfare and flesh and blood breaking down.; Ya either got faith or ya got unbelief and there ain't no neutral ground.
Well, I spied a girl and before she could leave,; "Let's go and play Adam and Eve."; I took her by the hand and my heart it was thumpin'; When she said, "Hey man, you crazy or sumpin',; You see what happened last time they started."
Don't have to look no further, you're the soul of many things.
In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,; It's done with a flick of the wrist.
Mama, take this badge off of me
Train wheels runnin' through the back of my memory
Put your body next to mine; And keep me company,; There is plenty a room for all,; So please don't elbow me.
We always did feel the same,; We just saw it from a different point of view
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
I'm in a cowboy band
Your magnetic movements; Still capture the minutes I'm in.
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
What kind of sign they need when it all come from within
Tell ev'rybody; Down in ol' 'Frisco; That Tiny Montgomery's comin'; Down to say Hello
Took a stranger to teach me, to look into justice's beautiful face; And to see an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
My head tells me it's time to make a change; But my heart is telling me I love ya but you're strange.
I was in your presence for an hour or so; Or was it a day? I truly don't know.
She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe; "I thought you'd never say hello," she said; "You look like the silent type."
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums,; Should I leave them by your gate,; Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
Well, he can be fascinating, he can be dull,; He can ride down Niagara Falls in the barrels of your skull.
Every brain is civilized,; Every nerve is analyzed,; Everything is criticized when you are in need.
If I ever lose her I will go insane; I go half crazy when she calls my name
Am I no longer a part of your plans or your dreams?
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
People tell me it's a sin; To know and feel too much within.
People ask about you; I didn't tell them everything I knew
she's true, like ice, like fire
Oh what dear daughter 'neath the sun; Would treat a father so,; To wait upon him hand and foot; And always tell him, "No"?
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
Our conversation was short and sweet; It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
The world of illusion is at my door
May you always know the truth; And see the lights surrounding you.
Go 'way from my window,; Leave at your own chosen speed.
Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer; It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
There was music in the cafes at night; And revolution in the air.
For all eternity I think I will remember; That icy wind that's howling in your eye.
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,; Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',; But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me
Roses are red, violets are blue; And time is beginning to crawl
I could say that I'd be faithful, I could say it in one sweet, easy breath; But to you that would be cruelty and to me it surely would be death.
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane?
I like the cool way you look at me,; Everything about you is bringing me; Misery.
If I had wings and I could fly,; I know where I would go.
Put my tears in a bottle
Screw the top on tight
It's mighty funny; the end of time has just begun
Don't trust me to show you beauty; When beauty may only turn to rust.
I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere.
I'm sick of love but I'm in the thick of it
Well my house is on fire, burning to the sky
You'd better do somethin' quick; She's your lover now.
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past; I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
Satan whispers to ya, "Well, I don't want to bore ya,; But when ya get tired of the Miss So-and-so I got another woman for ya."
They like to take all this money from sin, build big universities to study in; Sing Amazing Grace all the way to the Swiss banks
