Tin soldiers and Nixon's comin'
We're finally on our own
This summer I hear the drummin'
Four dead in Ohio
Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are gunning us down
Should have been done long ago
What if you knew her and
Found her dead on the ground?
How can you run when you know?
Na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na, na
Na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na, na
Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are cutting us down
Should have been done long ago
What if you knew her and
Found her dead on the ground?
How can you run when you know?
Tin soldiers and Nixon's comin'
We're finally on our own
This summer I hear the drummin'

Freedom of speech is precious. Stop censoring it. After all, it is only words. If words killed everyone would be dead here. If anyone complained to you I get it. If not do not let your personal feelings get in the way. What you are doing is far worse than anything contained in that thread.

Written by Neil Young after David Crosby showed him the paper of the Kent State debacle. He walked out into the woods with his guitar and came back in 90 minutes (time estimate varies with the story teller) with the whole song. Crosby called and arranged to do a recording and it was released as soon as possible by C,S.N.& Y even though it would probably hurt the ranking and sales of their current popular hit.

I have several well dispersed world wide ( Truman Ghosts) COPIES of the original IN-HOUSE KENT STATE UNIVERSITY INQUIRY transcripts...albiet in original steno speak..fROM THE ORIGINAL COURT STENOGRAPHER...B.K....whom I worked with for three yrs at Kent state university....in a very very safe place...places...

As they say....

Neil Young is the most overrated writer and entertainer EVAH.I change radio stations to avoid his crap

"Well I heard Mister Young sing about her/ Well I heard old Neil put her down/ Well, I hope Neil Young will remember/ A Southern man don't need him around anyhow"

I heard Neil Young is a rabid, foaming at the mouth progtard.

I don't listen to elevator music... unless I'm in an elevator.

Who would have known you had no musical taste ? There was no animosity between Young and Lynyrd Skynyrd. So much for the "hate of the day" proclamation. Is that what your "good book" told you ?

I should have known a color commentary would have brought out the riff raff.

My bad, I forgot this at the bottom of 1.

[sarcasm]

To bad at least on mobile there is no satire emoji.

Interesting stuff if you look at it. Turns out they liked each other. A couple things I found interesting.

"We thought Neil was shooting all the ducks in order to kill one or two. We’re southern rebels, but more than that, we know the difference between right and wrong… We wrote 'Alabama' as a joke. We didn't even think about it - the words just came out that way. We just laughed like hell, and said 'Ain't that funny'... We love Neil Young, we love his music..."

"I don’t like my words when I listen to it today. They are accusatory and condescending, not fully thought out, too easy to misconstrue."



But to the OP OHIO is a great song

Lynyrd Skynyrd did a little protest of their own on occasion.

Mister Saturday night special
Got a barrel thats blue and cold
Ain't good for nothing
But put a man six feet in a hole

Flyover state.

RRRRIIIIGGGHHHHTTT H.D. 😂😂😂😂

I'm not the one sitting around watching Lawrence Welk reruns I've seen a hundred more times over.

I never said Skynard had any animosity towards Young..........I used those lyrics to express my distaste of Young,you made an assumption and you were wrong.No hate here.......that's your specialty moron.

You would be correct.........Every time you throw up one of your irrelevant post,RIFF RAFF

I need subtitles for Neil Young, Bob Dylan, and Stevie Nicks.

Jump on the vherf with abrig sometime. It helps sort things out.
