Jethro Tull - Just Trying To Be Lyrics
There was a time when you were so young and walked in their way.
They made you feel they loved you all-seeing they say.
You're going wrong if their game you don't play
And that the song I sing will leave you astray.
unknowing, know you're going wrong.
And they can't see that we're just trying to be,
and not what we seem,
and even now believe that it's not real and only a dream.

Jethro Tull Just Trying To Be Comments
Tull always had these really short little acoustic ditties like this one, Wondring Aloud, Nursie, Grace, and Cheap Day Return
Absolutely love Jethro Tull , one of my all time favorites back in early 70’s saw them concert twice, great memories,
I dream Tull songs as I sleep ! Am I normal?
Oh yes John. You are ok 😊
Atul. Thanks, Atul.
'Course you are. You'd be insane if you didn't.
I used to pick up the needle and play this song on again over and over...
Reminds me of my first love, just the way he walked.
I think this might just be my favourite Tull song. I'm just a sucker for xylophones, or is it a glockenspiel? whatever, it's a great tune.
It's a keyboard instrument called a celesta, where instead of the hammers hitting strings like in a piano, they strike metal...
what a beautiful song and it's a little pity for too short
to see this played in concert in 71 at Seattle was intense ripped on hashish.....gods what days they were......hooooorah
Glen Cornik danced up and down the stage,marching, blew me away! Ian fantastic. All were great at the Atheneum opera hall in Hartford!
Been on my radar for 40 years.
How do gems like this slip under the radar for so many years?
cute little song from the mighty Tull
this song gets so stuck in my head it's crazy i can't stop listening to it i love it!
gostei da música, após ouvi uma apresentação da banda no canal fechado e pesquisei na internet sobre o grupo e gostei.
This is about all the angst of acceptance as we grow into adulthood, he's talking about you..
Will rock and roll lead you astray? You're kids trying to become someone/something...just trying to BE, and not the disaffected generation that they think you are...

The compact pieces of Living In the Past always make me think of Christmas 72,maybe because the album was under the tree for me.I was 16 and also got Close to The Edge under the tree.Thanks Santa!
2 of da best tull & YES
".....and Santa, pass this bottle....will you?"
Greetings from same generation!
Man that must've been a great christmas!
the first song of Ian's that I taught myself on guitar, in 1972................... sounds great on acoustic in an empty room.
Please, all people, pass on Jethro Tulls music to inspire future generations,tell your sons and daughters, no virtuoso's here, just role models for hard work, quest to explore musicality , and love of where simple major and minor chords, combined with passion, can produce timeless, meaningful
songs
wow, i honestly thought i heard every tull song, how did i miss this one all these years?
Damn...that xylophone or whatever puts me to sleep...in the best way possible. \\m//
