The Oil Barons - Snake Oil Lyrics

Well a man may ail, but
No man's alone
I peddle miracle wares
Make myself at home
I ride 89 horses
Ride 'em to your door
Young man got a snake in his boot
But he ain't feelin' fear no more
Friends, they call me The Doctor
Real friends call me Lou
But most folk they just call me The Doctor
And I'm the doctor for you
Got potions, got elixirs
Oh, just a drop'll do the job
By the time I'm done telling what I'm selling
You'll be buying all the selling I've got
What!
What's in my bag in the back of my wagon?
This cure from the desert my ponies are draggin'?
Your life's in the dirt, and your energy's laggin'
Behold what I have in the palm of my hand
Vital for vigor
Better than liquor
Does all that booze can, but safer and quicker
Feel like shit?
I'll cure you of it
Baby, I got what you need
Got all the medicine
Buy one and tell a friend
You could feel well again
Don't be so reticent
Take one of these
Put you at ease
Give you relief
Good for your teeth
A swig of my juice
You're suddenly loose
If you got a bellyache
I'm here to medicate
Friends, they call me The Doctor
Real friends call me Louis
But most folk they just call me The Doctor
And I'm the doctor for you, miss
It's time to hit that old dusty trail, I
Hope you're not too attached
If you're still feelin' down next time I come around
I'll hook you up with a fresh batch
