Teach Your Children Lyrics
By CSNY

Below you'll find the Teach Your Children lyrics and my full version acoustic demo.

This song hails from the Deja Vu 1970 album and had become a cultural anthem of sorts against the Vietnam War and nuclear war. Graham Nash wrote the song its believed based on a difficult relationship with his father.

--- Start Of Teach Your Children 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 ... will slowly go by
And feed .... them on your dreams ... the one they fix ... 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 .............and know they love you

And you ... of tender years ... don'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 ... Their children's hell ... Will slowly go by
And feed ... them on your dreams ... The one they fix ... 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 .............and know they love you
