Background

"Lady" is a song for Young's daughter, Presley Elizabeth, but it's also for Young's wife Taylor Mills. Young said: ""Lady" is maybe one of the most special songs I've ever written. I knew from the moment that my wife and I even started discussing having children that I was gonna want to write songs for my kid. I thought for sure it would after they were born and I got to know them a little bit—something would inspire me".[1]
