Bad Medicine
The words of an old place and they’re always in time with his soulThough his face be cracked and worn like age-old summer soilYou know he gave you his hand so you would lift him off that groundAnd no one wants a hand that’s rough to touch from the shit it’s been carrying aroundAnd every man wants more than he ever did beforeHe’s still got no way out We’ve got no way outNo way outWe’ve got no way out of thisWell he walks through town like a bible prophetKnows he owns it all but sometimes he doesn’t botherNo sometimes he doesn’t botherLord well he knows the dark hearts of menAnd he’s been there beforeYeah he won’t go there againNo yeah he won’t go there againFor every man wants more than he ever did beforeHe’s still got no way out We’ve got no way outNo way outWe’ve got no way out of thisSo if my eyes turn black and my teeth fall out and my hairs caught up in ragsSongtexteDon’t give me none of that medicine ‘cause I’ll spit it right back outHe tried so hard to fit in but he never really got a chance Before he spoke they burnt him, cut him, roped him and finally put him in the groundHe said I’ve been through war and I’ve been through law and I’ve climbed that hill so coldYeah I’ve been through more that you’ll ever know still they never let me goAnd every man wants more than he ever did before He’s still got no way out We’ve got no way outNo way outWe’ve got no way out of thisSo if my eyes turn black and my teeth fall out and my hairs caught up in ragsDon’t give me none of that medicine ‘cause I’ll spit it right back outOh yeah I’ll spit it rightYeah I’ll spit it rightI will spit it rightI will spit it rightI will spit it right back out Aus Songtexte Mania
