NEIL YOUNG LYRICS - Old Hillbilly Band

"Old Hillbilly Band"



There was an ill wind blowing

Through my hair last night

That froze me in my blue jeans.

I couldn't find a light

I know that something's coming

I can feel it in my bones

Thank God

for those old country boys,

I ain't out here alone.



My friends all tell me

I got daggers in my eyes

There's an anger in my heart

That they don't realize

I'm mad as hell at something

That I don't understand

Thank God

I'm on the road tonight

With this old hillbilly band.



Thank God

I'm on the road tonight

With this old hillbilly band.

We may not be good looking

But we sure get outta hand

Was that The Devil's stagecoach

Flying over the Rio Grande?

Thank God

I'm on the road tonight

With this old hillbilly band.



I swear that The Devil

Came visiting me last night

Surrounded my old stagecoach

With his eerie light

He was pounding on my windows

Rattling my wheels

I may not be The Devil

But I know just how he feels.



Thank God

I'm on the road tonight

With this old hillbilly band.

We may not be good looking

But we sure get outta hand

Was that The Devil's stagecoach

Flying over the Rio Grande?

Thank God

I'm on the road tonight

With this old hillbilly band.
