Neil Young — The Old Laughing Lady Live at The Riverboat 1969

[Verse 1] Don't call pretty Peggy, she can't hear you no more Don't leave no message 'round her back door They say the old laughing lady been here before She don't keep time, she don't count score [Verse 2] You can't have a cupboard if there ain't no wall You got to move, there's no time left to stall They say the old laughing lady dropped by to call When she leaves, she leaves nothing at all [Verse 3] See the drunkard of the village falling on the street Can't tell his ankles from the rest of his feet He loves his old laughing lady 'cause her taste is so sweet But the laughing lady's loving ain't the kind he can keep [Instrumental Break] [Verse 4] There's a fever on the freeway, blacks out the night There's a slippin' 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 all right
