Mark of Vaccination

I was standing inside the corner
Of my country
when for the first time ever
An airplane come chose to speed over me
The pilot he gave me a secret special hello
He shook his wings at me
The copilot he threw down these curtains
from a cut down tree
I guess he did not know
I cannot cipher I cannot read
And so I did not know
What these men in the sky
Wanted from me

Goddamn I know
Lord made me slow
Goddamn I know
Lord made me slow

I followed the plane it circled around
It landed on main street of my home town
the pilot and copilot got out
and set up shop by the tail piece
The copilot gets a nod from the pilot
He clears his throat starts talkin he said

We're with the government
And if you want to be part of our nation
you know you soul country people
we need you service
Mark of Vaccination

Well I guess he must have caught a cold
riding around in all that open air machinery
Cuz' when he was done speechifying
He let out a deep whooping cough
That landed on my arm
Yeah well me coming from good manners and good people
Well I just rolled up my sleeve
So as not to cause him any shame
Then the copilot looks at me and he says this right here
well Boy I guess you's gonna be the first to volunteer
And I said why, is there gonna be some fighting
Oh, there's gonna be some fighting alright
And I swear the copilot and pilot
They looked at each other and laughed just a little bit
And when I think about it
I think they might have been laughing at me
but I really don't know
I'm just so goddamn slow

Goddamn I kno
lord made me slow
goddamn I know
lord made me slow

And then the copilot whips out this horse sized needle
and he gouges me in the arm
yeah, well it was just below my sleeve roll
and the pain it knocked me down to my business end
yeah well then my cousin came
and ripped the hypodermic out of my muscle
and turned to revenge upon the men
and though I had much pain
I had to laugh
Cuz he hypodermicized their tyre
and now the high falootin government machine
is moving as slow as me
now the high falootin government machine
is moving as slow as me
all across the nation
all across this great nation
moving as slow as me

goddamn I know
Lord made me slow
goddamn I know
lord made me slow
goddamn I know
Lord made me slow
goddamn I know
lord made me slow
Lord made me slow
