Neil Young - Old Man

Thank you my audiophile friend PO1 William "Chip" Nagel for postom the music video of Neil Young performimg 'Old Man'

Song background from AZlyrics
"The caretaker of Neil Young's ranch was the inspiration for this song. He lived there when Young bought the ranch.
During the recording session the drummer was required by Young to play only with his left hand in order not to use the hi-hat.
James Taylor played a banjo for this song, though the banjo was tuned to sound like a guitar.
This song was played during the actor Heath Ledger's memorial service."

"Old Man" written by Neil Young
Lyrics
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life,
Twenty four
and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two.

Love lost, such a cost,
Give me things
that don't get lost.
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.

Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you.

I've been first and last
Look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last.
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.

Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were."
