[Verse 1] Oh people, look around you The signs are everywhere You've left it for somebody other than you To be the one to care You're lost inside your houses There's no time to find you now Your walls are burning and your towers are turning I'm going to leave you here and try to get down to the sea somehow
[Verse 2] The road is filled with homeless souls Every woman, child and man Who have no idea where th?y will go But they'll help you if they can But ?veryone must have some thought That's going to pull them through somehow Well the fires are raging hotter and hotter But the sisters of the sun are gonna rock me on the water [Chorus] Rock me, rock me on the water Sister will you soothe my fevered brow Rock me on the water (Rock me on the water) I'll get down to the sea somehow
[Verse 3] Oh people, look among you It's there your hope must lie There's a sea bird above you Gliding in one place like Jesus in the sky We all must do the best we can And then hang on to that Gospel plow When my life is over, I'm gonna stand there before the Father But the sisters of the sun are gonna rock me on the water
[Chorus] Rock me on the water Sister will you soothe my fevered brow Rock me on the water Maybe I'll remember Rock me on the water, yeah (Rock me on the water) The wind is with me now So rock me on the water (Rock me on the water) I'll get down to the sea somehow [Outro] Well now (Rock me on the water) Rock me on the water (Rock me on the water) Maybe I'll remember how, maybe Rock me on the water (Rock me on the water) You know the wind is with me now (Rock me on the water) Yeah, you know the wind is with me now Well, rock me (Rock me on the water) Oh
