What if you knew her and found her dead on the ground We're finally on our own Four dead in Ohio Tin soldiers and Nixon coming Tin soldiers and Nixon coming Gotta get down to it, soldiers are cutting us down Four dead in Ohio This summer I hear the drumming Publisher: BROKEN ARROW MUSIC Gotta get down to it, soldiers are cutting us down What if you knew her and found her dead on the ground How can you run when you know? This summer I hear the drumming Should have been done long ago How can you run when you know? Songwriter: Neil Young Four dead in Ohio Should have been done long ago Laa laa laa Laa laa laa Laa laa laa Four dead in Ohio ... We're finally on our own Laa laa laa Four dead in Ohio
When did Boomers stop protesting wars? What happened to our ideals? Were most of us just worried about our own a## getting shot off in Vietnam? Too bad, we had such great potential. Now we are just "Piggies eating their bacon"

great song, I have alot of respect for the point they are trying to make here more artists today should take a chapter from Youngs book. Music should be used in this way, its a non violent way to get the message across and lets face it who doesnt listen to music its a way to reach many many listeners. It has real meaning you dont see this quality of music anymore. Its now about the money and fame theres not allot of passion left in the industry.

I was in 12th grade when the Ohio National Guard killed the 4 students. Within a week of the massacre, this song was on the FM radio, being played constantly. Young and CSN put it together and had it on the air that quickly.

What's the original album for this? They don't show it on the This Song Also Appears on These Albums list.

I thought this was a Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young song; not just a song of Neil Young's.
