- Neil Young Carmichael 歌詞
- Crazy Horse Neil Young
- A silk scarf and a napkin
Hidden in a drawer
Two hundred bucks in an envelope
Labeled a Lenore
'Maybe she shouldnt see this
She should never know'
Said the widows best friend, Ann
'Ill just take it and go'
Ill give her the money later
Say it was in his shoe
That way shell never find out
Thatll do
Carmichael was a credit to the force
In everything he did
Its like we got a big hole in our side
Where he fit
If any of you officer
Would like to say a word
Now would be the time
To be heard
Thank you, Chief, I sure would
He was a partner of mine
He was always very careful
Played it straight down the line
One by one, the officers spoke
And the service drew to a close
He had no living relatives but his wife
Who never showed
She just couldnt face the men
They all understood
They got in their cars
And drove home as directly as they could
'Carmichael, you asshole'
The new widow sobbed beneath her veil
Shot down in the line of duty
Is that how justice never fails?
I wish that things were better
When we said goodbye today
But we had our share of good times though
Along the way
Remember, hey Mr. Las Vegas
He used to be so cool
We met Wayne Newton down at Pebble Beach
And you acted like a fool?
We both just couldnt stop laughing
It seemed so funny to us
We left our luggage back in our room
And almost missed the bus
That was a great vacation
Maybe the best of all
But goddamn it, Carmichael, you're dead now
And Im talkin to the wall
The force got back to normal
Carmichael was replaced
For one year nobody parked a carIn Carmichael's space
