Nickel Creek - When In Rome Lyrics














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 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 gonna bet they never really feel at home
If they spent a lifetime learning
How to live in Rome

Here is a little something I was listening to on my way back home tonight. You see its not only the rhythum and beat of the song which you should be looking at...lyrics are the soul of the song!
