Steve Earle - Snake Oil текст песни

Ladies and gentlemen, attention please

Come in close so everyone can see

I got a tale to tell

A listen dont cost a dime

And if you believe that were gonna get along just fine

Now Ive been travelin all around

I heard troubles come to your town

Well Ive got a little somethin

Guaranteed to ease your mind

Its call snake oil yall

Its been around for a long, long time

Say, your cropsll burn if it dont rain soon

Aint seen a drop since the tenth of june

Well I can open up the sky

People never fear

If you aint impressed yet, just tell me what you wanna hear

Well you lost your farm so you moved to town

You get a job, they shut the factory down

Now you sit around all day long feelin sad and blue

You need snake oil yall, tell you what Im gonna do

I can heal the sick, I can mend the lame

And the blind shall see again, its all the same

Well aint your president good to you

Knocked em dead in libya, grenada too

Now hes taking his show a little further down the line

Well, tween me and him people, youre gonna get along just fine
