Rock Me On The Water (Live) Lyrics

Written by:Jackson Browne

Oh people look around you

 

The signs are everywhere

 

You've left it for somebody other than you

To be the one to care

 

You're lost inside your houses

 

There's no time to find you now

 

Your walls are burning and your towers are turning

 

I'm going to leave you here and try to get down to the sea somehow

 

Rock me on the water

 

Sister will you soothe my fevered brow

 

Rock me on the water

 

I'll get down to the sea somehow

I'll get down to the sea somehow

The road is filled with homeless souls

Every woman child and man

 

Who have no idea where they will go

But they'll help you if they can

 

Now everyone must have some thought

That's going to pull them through somehow

 

Well the fires are raging hotter and hotter

 

But the sisters of the sun are going to rock me on the water now

Rock me on the water

Sister will you soothe my fevered brow

 

Rock me on the water

 

I'll get down to the sea somehow

I'll get down to the sea somehow

 

Oh people look among you

It's there your hope must lie

There's a sea bird above you

Gliding in one place like Jesus in the sky

We all must do the best we can

And then hang on to that Gospel plow

When my life is over I'm going to stand before the Father

But the sisters of the sun are going to rock me on the water now

Rock me on the water

Sister will you soothe my fevered brow

 

Rock me on the water maybe I'll remember

 

Maybe I'll remember how

 

Rock me on the water

 

The wind is with me now

 

So rock me on the water

 

 

I'll get down to the sea somehow
