Crosby, Stills, Nash (and Young) - How Have You Been текст песни

How Have You Been
by John Sebastian
Performed by Crosby, Stills, & Nash
on "Nintendo: White Knuckle Scorin' "
1991

And how have you been, my darling children
While I have been away in the west
Though you are strangers I feel like I know you
By the way that you treat me and offer to feed me
And eagerly ask if IA‚A?ll stay for a rest

And sit yourself down in a pile here before me
I wish I had presents for each of your smiles
But I have been travelling with not much to carry
Just a broken guitar case with tape on the sides
To hold up a few signs to help me get rides

And here is a strange European guitar string
I found on the floor of a club in Marseilles
ItA‚A?s fat for the third string and skinny for the fourth string

But I kept it in hopes that IA‚A?d need it some day
ItA‚A?s funny how people just do things that way

And here is a turtle from the Long Island Expressway
He says that his home has been covered with tar
So I gave him a ride on the back of my suitcase
And he says that heA‚A?d wants to live here in your yard
At long last his life wonA‚A?t be quite so hard

And how have you been, my darling children
While I have been away in the west
Though you are strangers I feel like I know you
By the way that you treat me and offer to feed me
And eagerly ask if IA‚A?ll stay for a rest

And how have you been, my darling children
