Neil Young - The Old Laughing Lady Lyrics Don't call pretty Peggy, she can't hear you nomore Don't leave no message 'round herback door. They say the old laughing lady beenhere before She don't keep time, shedon't count score. You can't have acupboard if there ain't no wall. You got tomove there's no time left to stall. They saythe old laughing lady dropped by to call And whenshe leaves, she leaves nothing at all. Seethe drunkard of the village falling on the street. Can't tell his ankles from the rest of hisfeet. He loves his old laughing lady 'causeher taste is so sweet. But his laughing lady'sloving ain't the kind he can keep. There's a fever on the freeway, blacks out thenight. There's a slipping on the stairway, just don't feel right And there's a rumbling in the bedroom and a flashing of light There's the old laughing lady, everything is allright.
There is a town in north Ontario, With dream comfort memory to spare, And in my mind I still need a place to go, All my changes were there. Blue, blue windows behind the stars, Yellow moon on the rise, Big birds flying across the sky, Throwing shadows on our eyes. Leave us Helpless, helpless, helpless Baby can you hear me now? The chains are locked and tied across the door, Baby, sing with me somehow. Blue, blue windows behind the stars, Yellow moon on the rise, Big birds flying across the sky, Throwing shadows on our eyes. Leave us Helpless, helpless, helpless.

But then hey Blue, blue windows behind the stars, Yellow moon on the rise, Big birds flying across the sky, Throwing shadows on our eyes.
