The Stray Birds - Best Medicine lyrics

Nothing my friend is harder to leave

than the sound of a town with ambition up it’s sleeve

But this is my ministry, my red neon sign

I’m just another record shop hanging on the vine

I walk like I’ve been kneeling on these rolling stones

The doctor tells me he can heal the beetles in my bones

You never known the gold you can find out there

until you put the needle down and do some digging in the air

Well well well all I see is all I tell

I never met a stranger to the bottom of the

Well if the body is a temple, the soul is a bell

and that’s why music is the best medicine I sell

--break--

Now I’m slowing down, but time just flies

And the crows have come to land on the corners of my eyes

But I have seen beauty that has no name

Like where the moon meets the river and the river meets the rain

Well well well all I see is all I tell

I never met a stranger to the bottom of the

Well if the body is a temple, the soul is a bell

and that’s why music is the best medicine I sell

--break--chorus x 3--picking end
