Doctor My Eyes
Jackson Browne
3:18So I'd like to dedicate this song to Corky Carroll And the, and the great misterioso Pacific Ocean 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 Oh your walls are burning And your towers are turning Gotta leave you here And try to get down to the sea somehow Rock me on the water Sister, will you soothe my fevered brow? Oh, 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 gonna pull them through somehow Oh, the fires are raging Hotter and hotter But the sisters of the sun are gonna Rock me on the water now Rock me on the water Sister, will you soothe my fevered brow? Oh, 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 seabird 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 Gonna stand before the Father But the sisters of the sun are gonna Rock me on the water now Rock me on the water Sister, will you soothe my fevered brow? Oh, 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 Thank you very much Thank you This is radio, no one's flashing any of Those applause cards or anything, are they? When I was about five I was in the Art Linkletter show, and And that's the only thing I can remember about it Was that there'd be this little dude with A little card that it'd say "applause" And he'd flash it up and you know, "Yah!" Flash it down and just die right off This, I'd like to do this song for a horse This horse, uh, it's a New York City hansom cab horse We were over there the other day and Uh, it had a collision with a truck It's one of those left turn in, you know, intersection numbers, and The driver of the truck wasn't looking Where he was going, and you know Plus they probably run into, you know, things all the time Except this time it was a horse, and You know they cover up the horse's eyes You know, so they don't get uptight Yeah So, suddenly this truck hit it It's alright though It was a little pissed off about it, actually It was sort of bleeped about it, actually It sort of, it just ran off into the park
