"Timberline" lyrics - NEIL YOUNG

NEIL YOUNG
"Timberline"

Well, I saw you on the timberline walkin' with your tools (Timberline, timberline)
I know you seen the signs, know you know the rules (Timberline, timberline)
You saw my machine, all of them are legal (Timberline, timberline)
Monkey with that madness, I'll blow your head off (Timberline, timberline)

[Chorus:]
Fooled by the Lord
Fooled by his grace
Put my faith in Jesus
Took away my livin'
Took away my place
Oh, Lord

Well, they really did it to me when they closed down the cut (Timberline, timberline)
They left that baby standing and it wrenched me in the gut (Timberline, timberline)
They really did it to me when they closed down the cut (Timberline, timberline)

[Chorus:]
Finger on the iron
Got you in my sight
Put my faith in Jesus
Goin' back to school
Gonna show them what I've learned
Oh, Lord

Well, they really did it to me when they closed down the cut (Timberline, timberline)
Left those babies standing, wrenched me in the gut (Timberline, timberline)
They really did it to me when they closed down the cut (Timberline, timberline)

[Chorus:]
Fooled by the Lord
Fooled by his grace
Put my faith in Jesus
Took away my livin'
Took away my place
Oh, Lord, yeah
