Teach Your Children

Composer: Graham Nash
Inspired by the 'Crosby, Stills and Nash' version.

“Crosby, Stills and Nash” recorded “Teach Your Children”. It is a song written by Graham Nash during his time with the Hollies, though the Hollies never recorded it. Their recording features Jerry Garcia on Pedal Steel Guitar. In 1986 Howard Stern released a parody of this song. Crosby, Stills and Nash recorded the song again in 1994 with Suzy Bogus, Alison Krauss and Kathy Mattea. Version of this song appear in both "Glee" and "The Office".

Stay Tuned!

lyrics

You, who are on the road
Must have a code, that you can live by

And so, become yourself
Because the past, is just a good-bye.

Teach, your children well,
Their father's hell, did slowly go by,

And feed, them on your dreams
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh-h

And-know they love you.

And you, of tender years,

Can't know the fears that _your elders grew by,
And so please help them with your youth,

They seek the truth, before they can die.

Teach, your parents well,
The children's hell, will slowly go by,

And feed them on your dreams
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sighhhhhhhh and know they love you.
