Buffalo Springfield

There was a rock group from the mid-1960's called Buffalo Springfield, best known for their classic song "For What It's Worth." It has the memorable lines in it:

"Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep;
It starts when you're always afraid,
Step out of line, theyll come and take you away"


The group's name was taken from that of a steamroller company.
