mike love (reggae) - medicine man lyrics

[verse 1]
off to bed at 3 am up with the rising sun (up with the rising sun)
no time for sleeping there’s too much work to be done
the wind blows heavy and the road is long (and the road is, and the road is long)
we got to water the seeds that jah planted in this song in jah song
oh what a blessing, oh what a burden, to keep this eternal fiya burning
the messengers gather to weather this storm as one
this responsibility has been handed down to we the keepers of this covenant jah
will never break will never bend no

[chorus]
medicine man (medicine man)
guitar in your hand (axe in your hand)
trod the rocky road through the heart of babylon
medicine man (medicine man)
microphone in your hand (mic in your hand)
following the calling of the almighty jah jah plan

[verse 2]
ever awoke will never be broken not for a token, jah
heeding the call of the millions cries of the children led to war
pen to the parchment, ear to the pavement, heart like a falling star
forever never too far
flowering towering out of the glow of the morning star

[verse 3]
morning has broken
revealing all we’ve lost
where do we stand now
we’ve paid the bitter cost
all of these questions
floating round in this void
who has the answers now? (who has the answers?)
call to the elders
(call to the youthman)
guidance and wisdom
(for inspiration)
call for compassion (call for humility)
bring us together now (open your eyes and see)
let’s all unite jah
sing now in harmony, all your friends, your enemies, we’re gonna need everybody
[instrumental break]

[bridge]
this responsibility
is yours if you choose to carry
this message with humility child
carry your song it won’t be long now

[chorus]
medicine man (medicine man)
bass guitar in your hand (bass in your hand)
shaking the foundation of the nations in this barren land
medicine man (medicine man)
piano keys in your hand (keys in your hand)
manifest the blessings help the children now to overstand

[instrumental break]

medicine man, oh medicine man
teach them there[?] to overstand
come on in, love[?]
teach them to overstand
oh, medicine man
you’ve got to teach them, got to teach them, got to teach them
