On the Beach - Neil Young

The world is turnin',

I hope it don’t turn away,

The world is turnin',

I hope it don’t turn away.

All my pictures are fallin'

from the wall where

I placed them yesterday.

The world is turnin',

I hope it don’t turn away.

I need a crowd of people,

but I can’t face them

day to day,

I need a crowd of people,

but I can’t face them

day to day.

Though my problems

are meaningless,

that don’t make them

go away.

I need a crowd of people,

but I can’t face them

day to day.

I went to the radio interview,

but I ended up alone

at the microphone,

I went to the radio interview,

but I ended up alone

at the microphone.

Now I’m livin'

out here on the beach,

but those seagulls are

still out of reach.

I went to the radio interview,

but I ended up alone

at the microphone.

Get out of town,

think I’ll get out of town,

Get out of town,

think I’ll get out of town.

I head for the sticks

with my bus and friends,

I follow the road,

though I don’t know

where it ends.

Get out of town, get out of town,

think I’ll get out of town.

'Cause the world is turnin',

I don’t want to see it turn away.
