[Intro]
"Get three coffins ready..."
"Huh?"
[Verse 1]
Covered wagon, medicine show
Take you to a place where the healing flows, oh-ho
Weak in spirit, we got the juice
Won't save your soul; it'll shine your shoes, oh
Treated king to kangaroo
Santa Fe to Timbuktu, oh-ho
Don't be fooled by imitation
This is the stuff that cured a nation
[Pre-Chorus 1]
We took the Tube and the high plains too
Never stopped long, just passing through
A drop of the laughter of the maids of France
Makes a hopeless cripple dance, oh
[Chorus 1]
It was really vile weather
When we got tarred and feathered
You could hear the six-guns sound
As they chased us out of town
...
Why does this tune remind me of RFK, Jr as the head of the Country's health?
I wish I knew.
