Wooden Ships (Live) - Neil Young/David Crosby/Graham Nash

If you smile at me I will really understand

'Cause that is something everybody everywhere does

In the same language

I can see by your coat my friend

You're from the other side

There's just one thing I got to know

Can you tell me please who won the damn war

Say can I have some of your purple berries

Yes I've been eating them for six or seven weeks now

Haven't got sick once

Probably keep us both alive

Wooden ships on the water very free and easy

You know the way it's supposed to be

Silver people on the shoreline let us be

Talkin' very free and easy

Horror grips us as we watch you die

All we can do is echo your anguished cries

We can Stare you as all human feelings die

We are leaving you don't need us

Go take your sister then by the hand

Lead her out of this foreign land

Far away where we might laugh again

We are leaving you don't need us

It's a fair wind blowin' warm

Out of the south over my shoulder

You know I'll set a course and go
