Old Man (song)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Old Man" is a song written and performed by Neil Young on his 1972 best-selling album Harvest.
The song was written for the caretaker of the northern-California Broken Arrow Ranch, which Young purchased for $350,000 in 1970. The song compares a young man's life to an old man's and shows that the old man was once like this young man. James Taylor played banjo and sang on the song, and Linda Ronstadt contributed vocals.
The song can be heard on the films Dogtown and Z-Boys and Lords of Dogtown.
In 2004 the song was covered by Canadian folk trio The Wailin' Jennys for their debut full length album, 40 Days.
