The Cavalry Songtext
von Lorraine Jordan

Send for the doctor
Send for the nurse
Send for the maker of heaven and earth
Send for the wise woman
Send for the priest
Send for the cavalry

Do you have any time
I′d just like to talk with you a while
It's about a good friend
Who′s reaching the end
Of a very thin thread

She says she's just fine
And smiles when she's asked how′s life
But she′s not very well
And I won't be surprised
If she tries something daft


Send for the doctor
Send for the nurse
Send for the maker of heaven and earth
Send for the wise woman
Send for the priest
Send for the cavalry

Am I wasting your time
I′m sure you've got enough on your mind
I′m not very good at talking
You'll think me an ignorant fool

But I′m really quite scared
Of the way she's been thinking lately
She's got no real friends to comfort her in pain
Except of course me that is

Send for the doctor
Send for the nurse
Send for the maker of heaven and earth
Send for the wise woman
Send for the priest
Send for the cavalry


Where are you now
Now that I′m needing you
Where are you now
Now that I′m calling out your name
Where are you now
Now that I'm ready to repent
Where are you now
Where are the signs your supposed to send

Send for the doctor
Send for the nurse
Send for the maker of heaven and earth
Send for the wise woman
Send for the priest
Send for the cavalry

Send for the doctor
Send for the nurse
Send for the maker of heaven and earth
Send for the wise woman
Send for the priest
Send for the cavalry

Send for the cavalry
