Mark of Vaccination

I was standing inside the corner Of my country When for the first time ever An airplane come chose to speed over me The pilot he gave me a secret special hello He shook his wings at me The copilot he threw down these curtains From a cut down tree I guess he did not know I cannot cipher I cannot read And so I did not know What these men in the sky Wanted from me Goddamn I know Lord made me slow Goddamn I know Lord made me slow I followed the plane it circled around It landed on main street of my home town The pilot and copilot got out And set up shop by the tail piece The copilot gets a nod from the pilot He clears his throat starts talkin he said We're with the government And if you want to be part of our nation You know you soul country people We need you service Mark of Vaccination Well I guess he must have caught a cold Riding around in all that open air machinery Cuz' when he was done speechifying He let out a deep whooping cough That landed on my arm Yeah well me coming from good manners and good people Well I just rolled up my sleeve So as not to cause him any shame Then the copilot looks at me and he says this right here Well Boy I guess you's gonna be the first to volunteer And I said why, is there gonna be some fighting Oh, there's gonna be some fighting alright And I swear the copilot and pilot They looked at each other and laughed just a little bit And when I think about it I think they might have been laughing at me But I really don't know I'm just so goddamn slow Goddamn I kno Lord made me slow Goddamn I know Lord made me slow And then the copilot whips out this horse sized needle And he gouges me in the arm Yeah, well it was just below my sleeve roll And the pain it knocked me down to my business end Yeah well then my cousin came And ripped the hypodermic out of my muscle And turned to revenge upon the men And though I had much pain I had to laugh Cuz he hypodermicized their tyre And now the high falootin government machine Is moving as slow as me Now the high falootin government machine Is moving as slow as me All across the nation All across this great nation Moving as slow as me Goddamn I know Lord made me slow Goddamn I know Lord made me slow Goddamn I know Lord made me slow Goddamn I know Lord made me slow Lord made me slow
