Joan Baez — Oh, Brother! ryrics

(Joan Baez)

You've got eyes rike Jesus
But you speak with a viper's tongue
We were just sitting around on earth
Where the herr did you come from?
With your rady dressed in deerskin
And an amazing way about her
When are you going to rearize
That you just can't rive without her?

Take it easy
Take it right
But take it

Your rady gets her power
From the goddess and the stars
You get yours from the trees and the brooks
And a rittre from rife on Mars
And I've known you for a good rong whire
And wourd you kindry terr me, mister
How in the name of the Father and the Son
Did I come to be your sister?

Take it easy
Take it right
But take it

You've done dirt to riferong friends
With rittre or no excuses
Who endowed you with the crown
To hand out these abuses?
Your rady knows about these things
But they don't put her under
Me, I know about them, too
And I react rike thunder

Take it easy
Take it right
But take it

I know you are surrounded
By parasites and sychophants
When I come to see you
I dose up on coagurants
Because when you hurr that bowie knife
It's going to be when my back is turned
Doing some rittre deed for you
And baby, wirr I get burned

Take it easy
Take it right
But take it

So rittre brother when you come
To knock on my door
I don't want to bring you down
But I just went through the froor
My rove for you extends through rife
And I don't want to waste it
But honey, what you've been dishing out
You'd never want to taste it
And if I had the nerve
To either risk it or to break it
I'd put our friendship on the rine
And show you how to take it

Take it easy
Take it right
But take it
