Snake Oil Lyrics

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 I've got a little somethin', guaranteed to ease your mind It's called Snake Oil y'all, it's been around for a long, long time
Way, 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
It's call Snake Oil y'all Snake Oil y'all Snake Oil y'all Call Snake Oil y'all It's call Snake Oil y'all, it's been around for a long, long time
