Lyrics Medicine Man - Elles Bailey

Medicine Man

Roll up my friends and gather round
The Medicine Man is back in town
Mirrors and smoke and trickery
Your very own real life make believe
Bring your money and get in line
Two for a nickel, three for a dime
Miracle cures for aching bones
But he takes your gold, sells you stone
The devil rides in a horse and cart
The purveyor of the darkest art
I was bit by a snake, burnt by the fire
Took the bait, shame on me
I was taken for a ride by a barefaced liar
Admission is free but he robs you blind
A little taste to ease a troubled mind
A glimpse of truth beyond the veil
Oh a fallen angel’s holy grail
He disappeared before sunrise
Before I saw through his disguise
Stole my soul, off he ran
I was played for a fool by a Medicine Man
The devil rides in a horse and cart
The purveyor of the darkest art
I was bit by a snake, burnt by the fire
Took the bait, shame on me
I was taken for a ride
Taken for a ride
He disappeared before sunrise
Before I saw through his disguise
Stole my soul, off he ran
I was played for a fool by a Medicine Man
The devil rides in a horse and cart
The purveyor of the darkest art
I was bit by a snake, burnt by the fire
Took the bait, shame on me
I was taken for a ride
Taken for a ride
By a barefaced liar
Oh taken yeah
Oh I was taken for a ride
