Snake Oil

歌詞

Ladies and gentlemen, attention please Come in close so everyone can see I got a tale to tell, a listen don't cost a dime And if you believe that, we're gonna get along just fine Now I've been travelin' all around I heard trouble's come to your town Well I've got a little somethin' guaranteed to ease your mind It's call snake oil y'all, it's been around for a long, long time Say your crops'll burn if it don't rain soon Ain't seen a drop since the tenth of June Well I can open up the sky, people have no fear If you ain't impressed yet, just tell me what you wanna hear Well you lost your farm, so you moved to town You get a job, they shut the factory down Now you sit around all day long feelin' sad and blue You need snake oil y'all, tell you what I'm gonna do I can heal the sick, I can mend the lame And the blind shall see again, it's all the same Well ain't your President good to you Knocked 'em dead in Libya, Grenada, too Now he's taking his show a little further down the line Well, 'tween me and him people, you're gonna get along just fine
