- A Horse With No Name Lyrics

On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound

I?ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
?Cause there ain?t no one for to give you no pain

La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la

After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead

You see I?ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
?Cause there ain?t no one for to give you no pain

La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la

After nine days I let the horse run free
?Cause the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with it?s life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love

You see I?ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
?Cause there ain?t no one for to give you no pain

La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la

Sorry my friend. Neil Young was not in the group America. He's even Canadian to boot! He 1st formed Buffalo Springfield with Stephen Stills & the rest is history. But u are right; they do sound alike!

I love this song because i can understand what he's trying to say and i believe it's true humans spend all they're time putting sunblock instead of actually realizing they're life in the serene ocean.

I almost know this song by heart and i love it because it is very impressionistic because it feels like there is acually someone out there in the world crossing the desert and coming to an ocean.
