Notes
BF: One verse goes, "In history we painted pictures grim / The devil knows we might feel that way again / The big wind blows so the tall grass bends / But for you, don't push too hard my friend." I think that perfectly captures a certain American attitude. But at the same time, I'd be surprised if that were your attitude. NY: Well, I felt that way when I was thinking about the hostages in Iran. "Just push us one more fuckin' step." I wish Carter had...I'm glad that nobody got killed; that's number one. I just wish we didn't have to sit there and take it for so long. I was on the edge there. Neil Young Interview with Bill Flanagan 1985
