Neil Young - Far From Home lyrics

When I was a growing boy

A-rocking on my daddy's knee

Daddy took an old guitar and sang

Bury me on the lone prairie

Uncle Bob sat at the piano

My girl cousins sang harmony

Those were the good old family times

That left a big mark on me.

Bury me out on the prairie

Where the buffalo used to roam

Where the Canada geese once filled the sky

And then I won't be far from home

Bury me out on the prairie

Where the buffalo used to roam

You won't have to shed a tear for me

'Cause then I won't be far from home.

Walking down the trans-Canada highway

I was talking to a firefly

Trying to make my way to Nashville, Tennessee

When another car passed me by.

Some day I'm gonna make big money

And buy myself a big old car

Make my way on down to that promised land

And then I'm gonna really go far.

Bury me out on the prairie

Where the buffalo used to roam

Where the Canada geese once filled the sky

And then I won't be far from home

Just bury me out on the prairie

Where the buffalo used to roam

You won't have to shed a tear for me

'Cause then I won't be far from home.
