Johnny Rivers - Rock Me On The Water lyrics

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
Whoa, your walls are burning and
Your towers are turning
I'm going to leave you here
Try to get down to the sea somehow

The road is filled with homeless souls
Every woman, child and man
Who have no idea where thеy will go
But they'll help you if they can
Now еveryone must have some thought
That's gonna pull them through somehow
Whoa, the fires are raging hotter and hotter
But the sisters of the sun are going
To rock me on the water now

Rock me on the water
Sister will you soothe my fevered brow?
Oh, rock me on the water
(Rock me on the water)
I'll get down to the sea somehow

Ooh 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 hang on to that Gospel plow
When my life is over
I'm gonna stand before the Father
But the sisters of the sun are gonna
Rock me on the water now

Rock me on the water
Sister will you soothe my fevered brow?
Oh, rock me on the water
(Rock me on the water)
And maybe I'll remember
Maybe I'll remember how rock me on the water
Whoa, 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
Whoa yeah (Oh Father)
