Neil Young – Ambulance Blues Lyrics 18 years ago
This verse always cracks me up,
"Oh, Mother Goose,
she's on the skids
Shoe ain't happy,"
not sure what it means though.

Anyone know what Neil was refering to in this verse?
"I saw today
in the entertainment section
There's room at the top
for private detection.
To Mom and Dad
this just doesn't matter,
But it's either that
or pay off the kidnapper."

Great song!

Kansas – People of the South Wind Lyrics 18 years ago
I'd like to think this song has similar meaning to the best time of my life. In 1979 ironically the same year this song was released, I came to know the Horsepeople (cowgirls and boys) at the farm and hang out all the time durning "the days of my youth..". Twenty eight years later through all my travels "all across the oceans" not a day went by when didn't think about them and want to go back there.
Eventhough the people and place were so important to me, I'm sure only a few of us that hang around can still remember. And now some of the dreams(memories) are actually starting to fade.

"Well, it's a hard thing to face the music:
But it's something everybody has got to do
So I hope that I can always remember
All the crazy times we had to go through
Now it's a dream that is slowly fading
And I don't want it to go
All of the memories are evading
And I want you to know (it's the)"
So personally I think this song is about surviving and leaving your youth behind and always wanting to go back.

Although the term" people of the southwind" refers to the Kansa American Indian tribe (later derived into Kansas). Not sure how this song applies to a tribe.........Great song though!!!
