Medicine Jar Lyrics

(Bolan, Hill, Snake)
Backing Vocals : Rachel and Snake

Caught the mother jack knifin¹
A little bit low lifin¹
Goin¹ twenty paces with the medicine man
Runnin¹ from the girl in pigskin
A little gun shy but shootin¹
Hidin¹ in the kitchen with his head in his hand

Bleed, me -- why can¹t you say what you mean ?

Chorus
How far has it gone, it didn¹t take you long
To put your hand in the medicine jar
In your private hell, now you¹ve found yourself
In the hands of the medicine jar

Sittin¹ here with all your bitchin¹
Cookin¹ up a new addiction
Prayin¹ that the light of day ain¹t wakin¹ the dead
Droppin¹ like a bomb on Hiro
Shakin¹ like San Francisco
Only to be diggin¹ out to do it again

Bleed, me -- why can¹t you say what you mean ?

Repeat Chorus

Make it go away, make it go a--way

Caught the mother jack knifin¹
A little bit of low lifin¹
Goin¹ twenty paces with the medicine man
Droppin¹ like the bomb on Hiro
Shakin¹ like San Francisco
Hidin¹ in the jungle with your head in the sand

Repeat Chorus 2x

One step from bein¹ free, what did you think
You¹d see at the bottom of the medicine jar
