I've got a Page One story buried in my yard I've got a troubled mind I'm going down to the medicine show
If I've got to choose between doing penance And doing time I'm going down to the medicine show
I've got a one way ticket on the 8:06 To the outskirts of town I'm going down to the medicine show
And I'll say, \"hey conductor Now don'tcha stop until you hear that gypsy sound I'm going down to the medicine show
But I know that it's hard to be a reasonable man When you stop finding reasons for everything But tonight I'll get some answers Down at the medicine show
I'm gonna find me that gypsy girl That likes to dance and cry When I go down to the medicine show
And we're gonna lay our burden down Beneath that lonesome gypsy sky When I go down to the medicine show
