Widespread Panic Lyrics

Album: 'Til the Medicine Takes

Blue Indian Lyrics

Oh, Pappy left a chair like he's still sittin' there

Once I almost saw him make his move

Brave Indian who never changes his mood

In a painting on the wall right there


Oh, how long 'til the morning wakes

Oh, how long 'til the medicine takes


Oh, Sally buffalo in the apartment just below

Just a bein' without a care

Oh, children from my brood they come and bring me food

Maybe open up a window for air


Oh, just now I smell the cornbread bake

Oh, now, now, now I feel the medicine take


Just like home

Where the stray dogs go through it all

Still right here, still just here,

Brave little friend


Well, we got a party goin' on many spirits strong

Ain't preacher just a happy to meet ya

Half a bottle 'neath the bed keep our spirits fed

My hat's off to you, to you and you


And now our brave friends, too, dancing circles through the room

And a broom and a radio and a twistin out a dos-e-do

Brand new day, the whole world's goin'

Whole room's goin' so


Just now, don't hesitate (hesitate)

Oh, taste the morning break (morning break)

Sweet, sweet, young honeycomb (honeycomb)

On, now, now, now just like home (just like home)


Oh, just like, just like home

Where the stray dogs go

Oh, oh, rest my bones

Like a fresh skipped stone to it all


Still right here, still just here,

Still just here, brave, brave friend
