Comin' Apart at Every Nail (previously released on Hawks & Doves) Songtext
von Neil Young

It′s awful hard to find a job
On one side the government, the other the mob
Hey, hey ain't that right
The workin′ man's in for a hell of a fight.

Oh, this country sure looks good to me
But these fences are comin' apart at every nail.


Way up on the old dew line
Some of the boys were feelin′ fine
A big light flashed across the sky
But somethin′ else went slippin' by
Meanwhile at the Pentagon
The brass was a wonderin′ what went wrong.

Oh, this country sure looks good to me
But these fences are comin' apart at every nail.

Hey hey, ain′t that right
The workin' man′s in for a hell of a fight.

Oh, this country sure looks good to me
But these fences are comin' apart at every nail.
