The Ballad of Peggy Grover - Neil Young

Young Pegi just died today

Young Pegi just died today

And I guess nobody even knows the case

But the way the story goes

She just ran out of clothes

No will this world

Just for the peg down

Last words, can’t talk

And then she wrote.

Some people can’t stand no rain

Some people can’t stand no rain

When it’s cloudy outside

You can’t see the sun

But on a bright and sunny day

The people all go away

Except one

Oh no don’t pity me babe

I know I’m alright

O yeah, I’m alright.

Don’t see no tears around me Don’t see no tears around me I don’t take too much stock

In the things people say

I’m not saying that they’re wrong

They’ve just been standing around too long

Gone bad,

Oh no, don’t pity me babe

I know I’m alright

O yeah, I’m alright.

Can’t ride my broom no more

Can’t ride my broom no more

'Cause the landlady’s taken

To sweeping the floor

I guess I’ll go back to my place

And occupy a little space

John Doe,

Oh no, don’t pity me babe

I know I’m alright

O yeah, I’m alright.

The streets are crammed, can’t walk

Might find somebody and talk

I can’t find nobody who

Say boo, guess who

'Cause that street is paved with aires

And everybody is putting on theirs

Can’t breathe

Oh no, don’t pity me babe

I know I’m alright

O yeah, I’m alright.

He’s standing outside my door

He’s standing outside my door

But he won’t ring the bell

And he’s just to scared to knock

And he’s puzzled

And he’s young

And he’s doing what’s already been done

One more

Oh no, don’t pity me babe

I know I’m alright

O yeah, I’m alright.

Oh no, don’t pity me babe

I know I’m alright.
