Good Medicine

Peter Mayer/Vincent Varvel/Mac McAnally

Every once in a morning I wake up in a shadow
My hands are stranded my restless feet don’t want to run
The game is on but the home team’s getting battered
Hopeless for the moment but only for the moment
I think I hear the cavalry

Chorus
Like a sweet sound coming down the mountain
Make my whole world a sun that’s bound to rise
Nothing like you to put me back in my skin
It’s good for my soul good medicine

Hey Julia there’s rain left on your windows
From the bad bad winds and the flood that’s been and gone
And if you can’t carry one more thing upon your shoulders
Put a little bit into this song
Right down to the minute count us out but we’re still in it
Think I hear a melody

Chorus
Like a sweet sound coming down the mountain
Make my whole world a sun that’s bound to rise
Nothing like you to put me back in my skin
It’s good for my soul it’s good medicine

Hearts in need of rescue
Or maybe just a smile
Waiting on the best of you
Be prepared to wait a while

Right down to the minute Count us out but we’re still in it
Think I hear a melody

Chorus
