"The W.S. Walcott Medicine Show (Live)"
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
W.S. Walcott Medicine Show
W.S. Walcott Medicine Show
W.S. Walcott Medicine Show

I thought that love would wait
I was a young man
And I was sure to go...
Harry Nilsson - "Jump Into The Fire" You can climb a mountain
You can swim the sea
You can jump into the fire
But you'll never be free
You can shake me up

We can make each other happy...
The Rolling Stones - "Tumbling Dice" People think I'm crazy
Always tryin' to waste me
Make me burn the candle right down

Cheatin' like I...
Bruce Springsteen - "Born To Run" In the day, we sweat it out on the streets
Of a runaway American dream
At night, we ride through mansions of glory
In suicide machines
Sprung from cages out on Highway 9
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected...
