Words Are Medicine - Tim McGraw

For the light sleeper, the street sweeper

Promise breaker, promise keeper

The astronaut, the acrobat

The underdog who is coming back

Maybe you’re Hooked On Phonics or Mary Jane;

Coca Cola or cocaine

We’re just a different kind of the same, yeah

Sticks and stones can break you

But words are medicine, words are medicine

When I’m black and blue, I’m broken and bruised

I hear your voice again

Words are medicine

The beautician, the mortician

The blinded sided, the night vision

The baptized, the chicken fried

The rolled tide, the unforgiven

For the girl who is lost in romance novels

The guy who sees through whiskey goggles

We’re just a different kind of the same, yeah

Sticks and stones can break you

But words are medicine, words are medicine

When you’re black and blue, you’re broken and bruised

Just hear my voice again:

Words are medicine

I do.

I will

I believe in you still

I have a dream

Imagine

A shiny city on a hill

I’m sorry.

Forgive me

I love you

I love you

Words are medicine.

Words are medicine

When you’re black and blue, you’re broken and bruised

Just hear my voice again:

Words are medicine.

Words are medicine

When we’re black and blue, we’re broken and bruised

I hear your song, my friend

Words are medicine.

Words are medicine

Words are medicine.

Words are medicine
