Big Audio Dynamite

Medicine Show

Covered wagon medicine show

Take you to the place where the healing flows

Weak in spirit, we got the juice

Won't save your soul, it'll shine your shoes

Treated king to kangaroo

Santa Fe to Timbuktu

Don't be fooled by imitation

This is the stuff that cured a nation

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

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

In India we're all the rage

Discovered that it's great as aftershave

Dropped in the sea, just off Japan

Swapped 20 bottles for an aqua-walkman

Immunity from ridicule

Improves your brains if you're a fool

And I read in the Middle East, they traded some for a hostage release

Now if you're bald it'll give you hair

If you got straight trousers it'll give you flares

Feeling up, you'll get depressed

Out of style, here's a brand new dress

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

Who the hell is that?

One bastard goes in, another comes out

Cut it out (Come over here)

Cut it out

Cut it out (Come over here)

Cut it out

I'm innocent of anything!

Are you making some kind of joke?

Ooh no!

I don't think it's nice, you laughing

The stuff we sell is just the best

Passing all consumer test

Days of heaven, nights of sin

Voodoo stick and sharks fin

When all around you seems like hell, just one sip will make you well

Multipurpose in a jar

If you ain't I'll it'll fix your car

In days of yore for all bad feelings

Washing socks and stripping ceilings

Nowadays it's used medicinally for all known human malady

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

Wanted in 14 counties of this state

The condemned is found guilty for the crimes of murder

Armed robbery of Citizens, state banks and post offices

The theft of sacred objects

Arson in state prison

Perjury

Bigamy

Deserting his wife and children

Inciting prostitution

Kidnapping

Extortion

Receiving stolen goods

Selling stolen goods

Passing counterfeit money and contrary to the laws of this state, the condemned is guilty of using marked cards

And therefore, according to the powers invested in us we sentence the accused here before us

Tuco Benedito Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez (Known as "The Rat")

And any other aliases he may possess to hang by the neck until death

May god have mercy on your soul

Proceed

Duck you suckers!

I don't have to show you any stinking badges
