  • Normally I'm not a fan of cover versions but this is even better as the original NY -version

  • Neil Young and Margo Timmins, two of my favorite artists. His music and lyrics, her sultry soulful voice. Magic.

  • @cwebsterk It's about war...it's about death and dying, and the ones we leave behind. Thanks 1MiMo2. peace

  • @cwebsterk Basically its about moonshiners and the revenuers are coming to get them. Dads away and the young man is only one to fight hem off. Dies in a gunfight. Neil Young song.

  • Simply spellbinding...

  • IT"S A CLASSIC VERSION. GREAT BAND.

  • @hugosalarm Q.E.D.

  • @MGJMESSNER Am I supposed to be Sir Andrew Aguecheek to your Toby Belch? On a planet now defined in large part by multicultural mingling, there is limited tolerance and an abiding distrust in16th century English humor in general, and double entendre in particular. Now if it's poultry you're alluding to, then I'll look to Orwell as an ally. I'm almost certain that he accorded my kind, whether cloth-eared or no, some fair to middling social status "down on the farm."

  • @hugosalarm. You, sir, are a cock. A cloth-eared, cock.
