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.
