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 call snake oil y'all It's been around for a long, long time Well your crops will 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, tell me what you want to hear Well you lost your farm so you moved to town 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, step right up I can heal the sick and 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 that show, a little further down the line 'Tween me and him, people, you're gonna get along just fine, hup It's called snake oil y'all Snake oil y'all Ah snake oil y'all Called snake oil y'all It's called snake oil y'all It's been around a long long time
