Blue Indian Lyrics - Widespread Panic

Oh, Pappy left a chair like he's still sittin' there 

Once I almost saw him make his move 

Brave Indian who never changes his mood 

In a painting on the wall right there 

Oh, how long 'til the morning wakes 

Oh, how long 'til the medicine takes 

Oh, Sally buffalo in the apartment just below 

Just a bein' without a care 

Oh, children from my brood they come and bring me food 

Maybe open up a window for air 

Oh, just now I smell the cornbread bake 

Oh, now, now, now I feel the medicine take 

Just like home 

Where the stray dogs go through it all 

Still right here, still just here, 

Brave little friend 

Well, we got a party goin' on many spirits strong 

Ain't preacher just a happy to meet ya 

Half a bottle 'neath the bed keep our spirits fed 

My hat's off to you, to you and you 

And now our brave friends, too, dancing circles through the room 

And a broom and a radio and a twistin out a dos-e-do 

Brand new day, the whole world's goin' 

Whole room's goin' so 

Just now, don't hesitate (hesitate) 

Oh, taste the morning break (morning break) 

Sweet, sweet, young honeycomb (honeycomb) 

On, now, now, now just like home (just like home) 

Oh, just like, just like home 

Where the stray dogs go 

Oh, oh, rest my bones 

Like a fresh skipped stone to it all 

Still right here, still just here, 

Still just here, brave, brave friend
