The Band

The W. S. Walcott Medicine Show

When your arms are empty, got nowhere to go

Come on out and catch this show

There'll be saints and sinners, you'll see losers and winners

All kinds of people you might want to know

Once you get it, you can't forget it

W.S. Walcott Medicine Show

You know he always holds it in a tent

And if you're looking for the real thing

He can show you where it went

There's a young faith healer he's a woman stealer

He will cure by his command

When the music's hot and you might have to stand

To hear the Klondike Klu Klux steamboat band

Don't you sweat it

You can't forget it

W.S. Walcott Medicine Show

I'd rather die happy than not die at all

For a man is a fool who will not heed the call

Gonna see *Miss Brer Foxhole with bright diamonds in her teeth

She is pure gold down underneath

She's a rock and roll singer and a true dead ringer

Boy, somethin' like you ain't never seen

Once you get it

You can't forget it

W.S. Walcott Medicine Show
