I went down to the charlatan's show
I've been fooled before but I just had to go
Folks from all around said that he'd have the cure
For what had been slowly killing me
Since I was just three years old

I set out dressed in my Sunday best
I had to try just one more time
After a lifetime of trying to mend that hole in my chest
I walked with the will of a woman possessed


I just knew he was different from all the ones before
When he laid his hands on me
He said he had just the cure that I'd been looking for
And I drank it down believing I would be reborn

I went down to the charlatan's show
I've been fooled before but I just had to go
Folks from all around said that he'd have the cure
For what had been slowly killing me
Since I was just three years old

Well his words were so sweet and his touch so soft
He convinced me he'd save my life
But his promises were hollow and his lies that I had swallowed
Stopped my broken heart from beating with the lethal dose of sorrow

I went down to the charlatan's show
I ahd been fooled before but I just had to go
Folks from all around said that he had the cure
And now I'm left here to choke on this bitter snake oil
