Crosby, Stills, Nash (and Young) - Night Time for the Generals слова песни
(4:20)Written by David Crosby & Craig Doerge, Published by Stay Straight Music,Fair Star Music (c) 1987. Recorded March 24th, 1988.Well it`s nighttime and the long carsAre arriving at the door,The general is having another party,With a congressman or threeAnd some guys you never see outside the bank.There`s a laughing clink of glassesAnd a polished click of bootsAnd bitter talk of a countryWith a weakness in its roots.And it`s nighttime for the generalsAnd the boys at the C.I.A.Power gone mad in the darknessThinking they`re God on a good dayThey giveth, they takethBut they like to take it away."Well the fools don`t know the differenceIt`s for their own good," they said.And they shot blind Lady LibertyIn the back of her head.And it`s nighttime for the generalsAnd the boys at the C.I.A.Power gone mad in the darknessThinking they`re God on a good dayThey giveth, they takethBut they like to take it away.They giveth, they taketh,Nighttime, nighttime, nighttime.Lead Vocal: David CrosbyDrums: Joe VitaleBass: Bob GlaubElectric Guitars: Stephen Stills, Neil Young, Graham NashB 3 Organ: Mike FinniganStephen Stills` guitar solo inspired by James Marshall Hendrix
