Teach Your Children Songtext
von Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

You, who are on the road
Must have a code you try to live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a goodbye

Teach your children well
Their father′s hell did slowly go by
Feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you′ll know by

Don't you ever ask them why
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you


And you, of tender years
Can't know the fears your elders grew by
Help them with your youth
They seek the truth before they can die

Teach your parents well
Their children′s hell will slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick′s the one you'll know by

Don′t you ever ask them why
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you

Don't you ever ask them why
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you

Ooh, and know they love you
And know they love you, yeah
And know they love you
