Paroles de la chanson Medicinals par PJ Harvey

I was walking through the national mall
Thinking about medicinals and how they used to grow them
When the ground was marshland ,undisturbed by human hands
And i heard their voice

The sumac Said We are always here
The witch hazel -We are always here
The sassafras - We are always here
Bluestem grasses -Always here

But do you see that woman
Sitting in the wheelchair
With her redskins cap on backwards
And her plastic bags swinging

From inside a paper wrapper
She sips from a bottle
A new painkiller
For the native people
