Neil Young Lyrics

Album: Unknown

Color By Numbers Lyrics

Someone wants to blow up the planet

 Johnny wants to find out why

 Johnny did a show in St. Louis

 Love came through the sky.

 

 Oh yeah, they were camped out,

 Waiting for the sun to rise

 Oh yeah, Johnny sang out

 Love into the sky.

 

 Johnny found a place out in Texas

 Waiting for him to come

 Made himself a reservation

 And hope came, in the gun.

 

 Oh yeah, he was flying,

 Waiting for the sun to rise

 Oh yeah, color by numbers

 Waiting for the sun to rise.

 

 Johnny did some time in the army

 Johnny did a stint in Vietnam.

 Now he can't forget it,

 His mind is confused,

 slipping from his twisted hand.

 

 Oh yeah, he's still back there

 With one hand on the gun

 Oh yeah, he's still back there

 Waiting for the rising sun.

 

 Now Johnny

 likes to go down the highway

 The wind singing in his ears

 Right up as

 most things go whirring by

 By day everything looks clear.

 

 Oh yeah, Johnny ride on

 Gonna find a special home

 Oh yeah, down the highway

 Looking for the rising sun.
