Nickel Creek - When In Rome |
|
Where can a sick man go |
|
When he can't choke down the medicine the old doc knows |
|
A specialist came to town, but he stays at home |
|
Sayin', "No one knows, so I don't" |
|
Honey, when in Rome |
|
Where can a teacher go |
|
Wherever she thinks people need the things she knows |
|
Hey, those books you gave us |
|
look good on the shelves at home |
|
And they'll burn 'em in the fireplace |
|
Teacher, when in Rome |
|
Grab a blanket, sister |
|
We'll make smoke signals |
|
Bring us some new blood |
|
It feels like we're alone |
|
Grab a blanket, brother |
|
So we don't catch cold |
|
From one another |
|
I wonder if we're stuck in Rome |
|
Where can a dead man go |
|
The question with an answer only dead men know |
|
But I'm going to bet they never really feel at home |
|
If they spent a lifetime learning |
|
How to live in Rome |
