Truth Be Known Lyrics

Cover art for Truth Be Known lyrics by Neil Young

This song has such and amazing sound that it leaves me transfixed every time I hear it, but the words are so mysterious. I'd love to know who he's talking about... the words seem so specific I can't help but wonder if it's written about a person in NY's life, maybe Crosby or Stills or Geffen or maybe even Corbain. No clue.

Song Meaning

I agree with you - the song leaves me transfixed as well. I am an avid NY fan and may be biased but this song puts all his critics on "mute"... Whinny voice, old man, whatever you want to say about him - it's songs like this that make me a fan FOREVER!!!
