Neil Young - Already Great Lyrics






I'm Canadian by the way
And I love the USA
(My American friend)
I love this way of life
The freedom to act and the freedom to say

Already great
You're already great
You're the promised land
You're the helping hand

Woke up this morning
Thinking about you and your new deal
(My American friend)
Trying to put myself in your shoes
Trying to feel how you feel

Already great
You're already great
You're the promised land
You're the helping hand

No wall
No ban
No fascist USA

No wall
No ban
No fascist USA

No wall
No ban...

Not my words
That's just you the other day out on that street
(My American friend)
You're looking at one of the lucky ones
Came here from there to be free

Got to chase the life with Freedom land
Got to play my part in God's plan
(My American friend)

Already great
You're already great
You're the promised land
You're the helping hand

No wall
No ban
No fascist USA

No wall
No ban
No fascist USA

No wall
No ban
No fascist USA

No wall
No ban
No fascist USA

Whose streets?
Our streets
[repeat till end]

Neil Young Already Great Comments

    Ya tha live album with crazy horse my dad has good taste

  4. J.... ....

    I was singing tha needle and tha damage done when I was 5

  5. J.... S....

    Some guitarists are surgeons (think Joe Satriani) some are geologists (Stevie Ray Vaughn) - they make the earth move. But Neil Young is a Tsunami. A tsunami of feelings that overwhelm. That submerge. That elevate. Every feeling imaginable is in those notes. Inexorable. Undeniable. True. And like a tsunami, they flood the senses with his personal experiences that inevitably become ours....Because they are ours. Through different eyes and a different fret board. We become part of the body of humanity. Thought has little to do with it. Neil's music reveals things that the eyes can't see. What Monet, Kerouac or Dostoevsky did, so does Neil. They all gave us a momentary
    glimpse of the timeless. And for that I am grateful.

  6. t.... ....

    If USA is the land of the free, then I'm the Pope of Rome. Sorry Neil, nice song, bullshit meaning.

  7. J.... E....

    The usa is a crap hole... they dont even know how to speak english anymore. its made up of mostly druggies and hookers that break into the usa in places like california and nevada for prostitution and to bring children accross the boarder for selling into child sex crimes. If that is great then we should send more of these people up to canada too. No borders and no rules makes for more crap. Hopefully more of the gangs move up to Canada for their free government handouts too. Neil wants to share his house with some MS13 members too.

  8. T.... D....

    Thankyou for everything Neil

  9. W.... K....

    We love you Neil!

  10. L.... L....

    May a cool wind blow your way on a summer night to help you sleep and sun warm you on cold winter days. Blessings to you and yours.

  11. G.... P....

    Great vid Neil

  12. J.... G....

    Can't wait for Neil and Promise of the Real along with Bob Dylan playing in July in Kilkenny in Ireland last seen Neil back in 93 one of the best days of my life ,Long may you run Neil

  13. g.... ....

    Sorry, Neil. I've been listening to your music for over 30 years, but you're very uninformed on this one. Illegal immigration has had a destructive (and deliberate, from the globalists' viewpoint) effect on our country. You may not see it. Certainly your video is not showing the drug riddled cities, the human trafficking, the rows and rows of tents of homeless people who would die for the jobs illegal immigrants have (from employers who are more than happy to support the notion that a wall equals fascism). Promise of the real? Not even close.

  14. L.... V....

    Thank -You, neilyoungchannel & Neil Young + Promise of The Real!!! ~ God Bless You ALL!!! We traveled the same road home! Coincidence is God's way of remaining anonymous!!!

  18. J.... J....

    Neil Young you could help Trump clean out the swamp with just one song please do it

  19. j.... L....

    Love your music! Great song😊

  20. J.... E....

    Is he saying "Small Hands, No Hate"

  21. B.... L....

    Beautiful!

  22. L.... F....

    Love this song!

  23. J.... L....

    Nice 🎙

  24. J.... m....

    great song - great Sound! What else... more and more of it please.

  25. D.... ....

    Pity he don't play music anymore with a real fuckin' band instead of this promise of the real shit. Anybody who's any real NY fan knows that the promise of the real is Crazy Horse and it won't ever be no different. He ain't made nothing decent, nothing to satisfy the soul, since he started doing all this shit without Crazy Horse, shame on you Neil Young, an, don't tell me Crazy Horse are past it - the great Billy Talbot has released a couple of fuckin' awesome albums - and from Dakota too.
    Looks like he's fading away and rusted out, and just releasing pieces of crap now.

  26. B.... B....

    Beautiful,,,,

  27. C.... W....

    Neil, the single greatest musical and spiritual influence in my life. All respect to this freedom fighter. "You're all just pissing in the wind. You don't know it, but you are. And there ain't nothing like a friend who will tell you that you're just pissing in the wind."....." Never knew a man who could tell so many lies. He had a different story for every set of eyes. How can he remember who he's talking to? But I know it isn't me, and I hope it isn't you.".... And thật is just one song.

  28. d.... ....

    with Trump as president, You should be getting back as a Canadian

  29. T.... l....

    .like the song....dont like the politics..you see mr Young already has his piece of the pie

  30. C.... B....

    Speak the truth, Mr. Young. Also Canadian by the way. Also love the USA. No wall, no ban. Even Richard Nixon has got soul.

    The world will get through this. The young are not as irrelevant as older people imagine. Change is on the way. Merci beaucoup for helping by writing songs along the way.

    You are like a fine wine, Sir. You keep getting better with age! Looking for good times! Please let me know any time you might be available to jam on acoustic guitars around a campfire. I will bring some nice Canadian Whiskey. Just asking.

    You miss 100% of the shots you don't take (Wayne Gretzky).

    What's up with PONO player? Great ideas take time. That needs to be done. My ears are waiting.

  31. J.... W....

    PAWS UP !!

  32. e.... ....

    Excelente y necesaria canción!

  33. R.... C....

    Neil ,still has a keen prospective .......

    “Here is your country. Cherish these natural wonders, cherish the natural resources, cherish the history and romance as a sacred heritage, for your children and your children's children. Do not let selfish men or greedy interests skin your country of its beauty, its riches or its romance."

  55. J.... S....

    Hi Mr. Neal Young. It is very special for me. Hear you in my Teens only by the way. Hear you with my best girl friend which I knew until now. But I never hear you as my favourite Musician. But when I saw Andreas Rebers in Gernany as an 51years old journalist whith an improvisation of your title I become neugierig. :.-) Seen a lot to my surprise. YOU ARE SO WUNDERFUL. And so the most loved video for me is you and crazy horse at stotinkika.

  56. A.... W....

    He still rocks my world

  57. N.... S....

    Neil are you going to tour? Cause I American by the way, but I love Canada.

  64. n.... m....

    Trump-bashing got boring a long time ago. There's nothing original going on here, and this is Neil at his least creative. When you are paraphrasing dumbass Green Day lyrics, you really are scraping the bottom of the barrel.

  65. A.... M....

    I play this everyday now I love it

  66. r.... s....

    well done

  67. C.... M....

    Some of the greatest memories from my past where Well spent with you Neil God bless.

  71. c.... ....

    Love you boy come on and play our Historical Olympia film society Theater! On yr way south...Play for us man it will be grand <3

  72. r.... m....

    Sad. Neil lost his critical ear for making great music after he recorded Mirror Ball. That's over 20 years ago. "America", as a serious subject for songwriters is, by and large, a losing propostion. The country simply doesn't like to be fawned over in three or four minutes of wishful thinking set to music. Paul Simon called one of his songs "America" and that was the truest definition of the country ever expressed if you happened to be a white and wide-eyed adolescent innocent at the time. If the country could talk back it would tell Neil Young that for his health's sake at least, he should at long last retire. Rappers have the situation well in hand. Many of them have been telling the "American truth" with uncanny accuracy for at least as far back as the times when Neil released stellar albums, and whether their reports are signals of doom or salvation for America is still to be determined.

  73. L.... L....

    Neil. I'm from the USA and we love you too. Thanks for reminding us who we really are! Proud again! We will be back!

  74. R.... A....

    Thanks for the show in Omemee the other night, it was a cool moment meeting you at the Sapphire Room after the show... thanks for all the music.....keep on rockin.....

    Getting Real Neil ! coast to coast!

  86. A.... w....

    Keep 'em coming Neil Young / Greetings from Sweden!

  87. B.... V....

    Amazing! Thank you, Neil!

  88. P.... T....

    Wow so that is Neil's reality, what happened to him, so out of touch.
    As he drives the highways in his Lincoln filming deer and buffalo he is unaware of the systemic racism, poor healthcare and widespread poverty that has dogged his "already great" nation for decades. Sad.

    P.... T....

    Paul Templeman He might be a little ticked that Trump called him a hypocrite, so there.
    (You're lucky you don't have bunions, Daryl.)

  89. J.... G....

    Honestly Neil hasn’t put out a great album since Greendale. Psychedelic pill was ok as well, he desperately needs to reunite with Crazy Horse and focus on making a great album.

  90. J.... K....

    you don't like our president he still the president rather you like it or not welcome to America it's not the land of the free land of where money get you whatever you want no matter what color or religion you are. What about the one kid who killed those people drinking and driving in the judge said that his parents were too rich so he didn't know the difference between drinking and driving and got off of murder welcome to America what if that would have been somebody in your family rich boy get to go drink wine while families mourn but I bet if he would have had hot somebody important that had more money than his parents he would be in jail welcome to America land of the dollar bill in God we trust

    J.... K....

    John Knott Yeah, I know what you mean. The dollar bill saying "In God We Trust", but most people are really just are trusting in that dollar bill. If the government and their kiss-ups trusted God, they would care about the poor, and then God would heap real blessings on them. I just don't see that happening, not yet anyway. It doesn't look like anyone is beating their weapons into plowshares.

  91. T.... ....

    Neil young, it's been a long time. good song.

  92. M.... A....

    Neil just keeps it coming!

  93. A.... M....

    Awesome

  94. M.... S....

    and nice

  95. r.... m....

    We’re making America GREATER !!!!!
