	Jimmy McCulloch handles the lead vocals a little better than Denny Laine, but the song is a forgettable rocker. Not bad, nothing special.	Bobber	April 11, 2012
	This is the Wings song that should have been a Ringo Starr song--it sounds like his style and he would have kicked *** with it. Not that Jimmy McCulloch and Wings did a bad job on it. I particularly like Linda's backing vocals which make her sound like one of the Lynyrd Skynyrd 'swampers'. Interesting how her backing vocals excel on several non-McCartney written Wings songs ("Medicine Jar", "Time to Hide", "Again and Again and Again").	Bruce Beatlefan	August 24, 2006

Lyrics

What's wrong with you?
I wish I knew
You say time and tell
I hope that's true
There's more to life than blues and reds
I say, I know how you feel,
Now your friends are dead.

Dead on your feet, you won't get far
If you keep on sticking your hand
In the medicine jar.

Now don't give up
Whatever you do
You say time will tell
I hope that's true
If you go down and lose your head
I say, I know how you feel
Now your friends are dead.

Dead on your feet, you won't get far
If you keep on sticking your hand
In the medicine jar.

Dead on your feet ...

What can I do?
I can't let go
You say time will heal
But very slow
So don't forget the things you said
I say I know how you feel
Now your friends are dead.

Dead on your feet, you won't get far
If you keep on sticking your hand
In the medicine jar.
