singin' call

Singer:stephen stills

listen to the sound of the night bird singin'

i wonder who he calls

my fingers hurt so bad

it's got me grinnin'

and i wonder can i do it all

hit a stretch of rapids in the rushing ragin' river

looking out for boulders and falls

a woman she watches from the top of the canyon

hopin' we don't drown us all

help me now

i got to slow down

hear my singin' call

hurt myself bad on a run through the desert

threw a shoe and took a bad fall

long for the peace that the ancients bring me

murmur of the lowlands shut my jaw

help me now

i got to slow down

hear my singin' call

everyone knows there's a price for the askin'

some people buy themselves a doll

help me

sweet jesus

i'm weary from the journey

i need to tell my brothers what i saw

help me now

i got to slow down

hear my singin' call
