Martin Sexton - Golden Road lyrics

Take it like a man they said Take your medicine Find a golden road and stand Then I saw exactly what they meant Find my homeboys on the dusky road Who couldn't give a should about their life Heed their words of faded brown Then live it and sing about their strife Then bring your song to the river at sunrise Sing that song 'til the river runs clean It will happen to you As its happened to me Won't you sing that lovely song for me It's alright mama Let your children be loud Watch them run into trouble So they can figure it out We spread our seeds far 'cross this land Hoping they'd fall on good ground A vaccination in the sun and rain shine And take a good long hard look around Then bring your song to the river at sunrise Sing that song 'til the river runs clean It will happen to you As its happened to me Come clean with me It's alright mama Let your children be loud Watch them run into trouble Cause trouble's their medicine Mama take your medicine
