Waterboys lyrics > This is The Sea > Medicine Bow


There痴 a black wind blowing
A typhoon on the rise
Pummeling rain
Murderous skies!
I知 gonna take my books
I知 gonna wear my coat
I知 gonna find my scarf
And wrap it around my throat
And you can
Come with me
Through the driving snow
We池e gonna ride on up to
Medicine bow

Well I spent too long
Just stuck on the shore
There痴 a man in my head
But he isn稚 me anymore
I知 gonna find me a ship
Stowaway on a boat
I知 gonna burn all the words
And letters and cards that I ever wrote
And you can
Sail with me
Where the current flows
We池e gonna move on up to
Medicine bow

I知 gonna change my colours
Cancel my things
Stop my squawking
Grow some wings!

Well I will not sleep
And I will not rest
I will put my soul
And my will to the test
I知 gonna tug at my tether
I知 gonna tear at my lead
I知 gonna test my knowledge
In the field of deeds
And you can
Run with me
Fast as we can go
Over the hill to
Medicine bow
