LYRYCS! When are you gonna come down? When are you going to land? I should have stayed on the farm I should have listened to my old man You know you can't hold me forever I didn't sign up with you I'm not a present for your friends to open This boy's too young to be singing, the blues So goodbye yellow brick road Where the dogs of society howl You can't plant me in your penthouse I'm going back to my plough Back to the howling old owl in the woods Hunting the horny back toad Oh I've finally decided my future lies Beyond the yellow brick road What do you think you'll do then? I bet that'll shoot down your plane It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics To set you on your feet again Maybe you'll get a replacement There's plenty like me to be found Mongrels who ain't got a penny Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground So goodbye yellow brick road Where the dogs of society howl You can't plant me in your penthouse I'm going back to my plough Back to the howling old owl in the woods Hunting the horny back toad Oh I've finally decided my future lies Beyond the yellow brick road PLEASE LIKE SO OTHERS CAN FIND THIS EASILY

My mother made me grow up listening to Elton, paying me a quarter to dance with her at times. Today I am with her playing this music for her. It's hard, she has Lewy Body Dementia, and at the end so to speak. Playing this song, as she sleeps, she still has an essence of herself, because she is tapping her fingers and moving her feet to the song. Thank you Elton for all the great songs, incredibly dear memories with my mother. Your songs are like old friends and hugs around our hearts today.

For my money, this is my favorite Elton John song. Actually, in my opinion, this entire album is easily the greatest thing he's ever done....and probably ever will. This song isn't just incredible from a melodic standpoint. It also has the distinction of having some of the most intricately impressive lyrics that Bernie Taupin ever wrote. I'm not sure if you've ever listened to the album in its entirety, but if not, I encourage you to check it out. 👍😊👍

When I was a kid, me and my friend Kody used to go to his room and play his moms records. Mostly Elton John records, they were fun to sing along to, we would jump all over the place. We played baseball, football together, he was also at all my dirt bike races, he was my best friend since 3rd grade. We went on to high school, he was a bad ass at baseball, he had mad skills. I would have quit but he kept practicing with me, he made me good enough to keep it going, I was good enough to where we both had college interest. Senior year , we decided to focus on baseball, women and parties. That year was great, we both had the grades, college recruit would have been easy for both of us. Then I noticed he was being scouted by 2 pro teams, I was happy for him, it was all I could talk about. I noticed one day he had this look like a really bad feeling. There was a lot I didnt know about him, he was going to the doctor for depression, anxiety and he wasnt sleeping, he was also becoming more detached. Baseball was over, I had a few letters, he signed a pro contract ($750K 1yr guaranteed). It was almost end of the year, senior ditch day, we were at a lake having a good time, I stayed close to him, I kept finding him alone. He came up to me, it looked like he had snapped out of it, he wanted to swim out to this small area in the middle, it was a floating dock about 100 yards from shore, we did it all the time it was no big deal. 6 of us jumped in and swam over, I didnt see Kody. He wasnt with us, I swam back to shore, I looked everywhere for him, I knew where he was, I didnt say anything, I didnt scream or yell, it was already about 90 minutes since we had been looking for him. I jumped into my truck, went to a payphone down the road and called the police. They cleared us out, they found him, no alcohol, no drugs, he just drowned. To this day I do not watch baseball, I still have all my equipment but I never played again. I had a Ford F250 longbed 4x4 with a 10 inch lift, 44 tires. I went to a friends and borrowed his garage band sound system , I cleared it with his mom. After the funeral was over, everyone standing there, I cranked it and played all his favorite Elton John songs. It was the hardest thing I ever had to do, I could bearly stand. I remember everyone singing along with the songs, I didnt know they were that popular. I wish we had filmed all the goofy shit we did when we heard these songs. This was the last song I played for him, not one dry eye. Also found out he had one more present for me, he knocked up his girlfriend, yep, a boy.I am his godfather. The hardest part is looking at him and seeing the spitting image of Kody, and one hell of a baseball player.

For the kids who came here because of Ant-Man, fun fact about this song is the songwriter, Bernie Taupin, wrote this at a point when he got tired of Elton and their "rocker" life. Elton gave him afterwards a go-signal to go back to his hometown a bit to rest. But this songs shows that even a burnt out man can write a good story via lyrics that would make a masterpiece song.

I absolutely ❤️ love Elton John, he’s got it going on still today. Back in the day when he sang all of these songs, that’s when I fell in love with him. I was young back then, now I’m 51 and I REALLY love these songs still. To me if a songwriter, singer had really good songs in the 1970’s and those songs are still popular today, that’s incredible talent!!

My brother committed suicide last weekend by overdosing on something. He was found with headphones on, presumably listening to something. This is his youtube account. He made a playlist containing 6 songs that was edited the day he passed. This is one of the 6 songs. With the method he used, he was dead after about 30 minutes, probably unconscious around 12 minutes. I like to think that it was peaceful for him with his music on. I love you Myles, I'll miss you everyday for the rest of my life...

When I was sedated on a ventilator, this song stayed in my head. When I woke up it was the first song I wanted to hear.
