This article has it overblown, knowing Neil's past work I'm sure the "political content" of these songs will cut both ways. Mark my words. When the CD comes out, we will post the lyrics here and let the flaming begin.

Harvest, Rust Never Sleeps and Harvest Moon were great albums! Prairie Wind isn't bad either. I don't care if he plays one note - Live Rust was the best concert film of the 70's. Don't forget Crazy Horse. Pure Rock!

Pompous asshole? no doubt. But great sounds over the years.

Rockin' In The Free World
by Neil Young

---

There's colors on the street
Red, white and blue
People shufflin' their feet
People sleepin' in their shoes
But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead
There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead
Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them
So I try to forget it, any way I can.

Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world.

I see a woman in the night
With a baby in her hand
Under an old street light
Near a garbage can
Now she puts the kid away, and she's gone to get a hit
She hates her life, and what she's done to it
There's one more kid that will never go to school
Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool.

Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world.

We got a thousand points of light
For the homeless man
We got a kinder, gentler,
Machine gun hand
We got department stores and toilet paper
Got styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive
Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive.

Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world.
