"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."

"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."

"Will I see you give More than I can take? Will I only harvest some? As the days fly past Will we lose our grasp Or fuse it in the sun?"

"See the lonely boy, out on the weekend, Tryin' to make it pay. Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and Can't begin to say."

"When you dance, Do your senses tingle? Then take a chance? In a trance, While the lonely mingle With circumstance?"

"Don't let it bring you down It's only castles burning, Just find someone who's turning And you will come around."

"Southern man better keep your head. Don't forget what your good book said. Southern change gonna come at last Now your crosses are burning fast. Southern man."

"Look at Mother Nature on the run In the nineteen seventies."

"You take my hand, I'll take your hand Together we may get away This much madness is too much sorrow It's impossible to make it today."

"Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain With the barkers and the colored balloons, You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that You're leaving there too soon, You're leaving there too soon."

"Neil Young is not a singer, nor is he a guitarist. Neil Young is a force of nature, like the wind or the sea or the sun, and his blazing talent is never better showcased than when he sits and strums his old Martin. He is able to achieve more with one note than most guitarists can with a hundred, and while his playing is sparse and song-orientated, you won’t find a finer example of music’s power to move anywhere else in the known universe. A living, breathing musical genius."

"Neil, you know, was this rock & roller who was coming around to folk music through Bob Dylan. Of course. Anyway, Neil came out to the club, and we liked him immediately. He was the same way he is now – this offhanded, dry wit. And you know what his ambition was at the time? He wanted a hearse, and a chicken farm. And when you think of it, what he’s done with his dream is not that far off. He just added a few buffalo. And a fleet of antique cars. He’s always been pretty true to his vision."
