Neil Young - Heart of Gold (Live at Farm Aid 1985)

Ever hear of Neil Young? My son, Shawn, loved the music of his era and Neil Young was and is one of his all time favorites... I bring you a song of his now titled Heart of Gold , Live from Farm Aid 1985!!!

From Farm Aid:
"Neil Young is a co-founder and board member of Farm Aid, along with Willie Nelson, and John Mellencamp. The three agreed that family farmers were in dire need of assistance and decided to plan a concert for America. The show was put together in six weeks and was held on September 22, 1985 in Champaign, Illinois before a crowd of 80,000 people. It raised over $9 million for America's family farmers. Performers included Bob Dylan, Billy Joel, B.B. King, Loretta Lynn, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty and many more."

LYRICS:

"Heart Of Gold"

I want to live
I want to give
I've been a miner for a heart of gold
It's these expressions
I never give
That keep me searching for a heart of gold

And I'm getting old
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

I've been to Hollywood
I've been to Redwood
I crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
I've been in my mind
It's such a fine line
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold

And I'm getting old
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

Keep me searching for a heart of gold
You keep me searching and I'm growing old
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
I've been a miner for a heart of gold

"Rolling Stone magazine ranked this track number 297 on its list of the 500 greatest songs of all time in 2004."

I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!!!
