Doctor Tonto
In the early west it was medicine man, but that was long ago,
Now it’s changed a lot. He’s called Doctor Tonto,
He couldn’t leave his home to find a slot for hiring on,
The hospitals were full up. all the openings were gone,
Not to be discouraged ,with a clinic he was fine,
As a grabber for quick business , he put out a sign,
Twenty dollar you get treatment to fix up, how you be,
No can fix, I give you one hundred dollar back for free,
A local lawyer thinking how easy can it get ,
That hundred dollars is in my pocket you can bet,
Hey Doctor Tonto, here’s my twenty, I’ve lost my taste and smell,
Do you think for twenty dollars you can make me well,
Nurse go get bottle from the box, I think it is sixteen,
Two drops on the lawyers tongue, he yell’s out “ Kerosene!”
Yes right! You fixed. That was quick as I can be,
Thank you for business and coming here to me,
The lawyer after two days, madly coming back,
Anxious, red and angry; “ I’ll just fix this Indian quack!”,
“Hey doc here’s my twenty ,I can’t remember anything,”
Nurse go get bottle, his memory this will bring,
Two more drops on Lawyer’s tongue , he yells out ‘Kerosene!”
That’s the same damn stuff you gave me from your box sixteen!”
Yes ! Kerosene Your memory fix! But it not to swaller,
Glad to be of service, Thank you for your twenty dollar.
Fuming mad at Doc Tonto, Gotta be a way,to get him,
Here’s my twenty Doc , my eyes are getting dim,
Have you got some way to make me see again?
Doc said, “No sir , here’s my hundred , this time I think you win,”
Lawers say’s ‘Wait a minue Doc. That’s a twenty dollar bill!”
Good! I think Your eyes they fix, I put your twenty in my till.
The Lawyer saying Damn I ought to shoot. you ! He began to curse.
Doc said, I don’t think so lawyer Kemo Sabe is my nurse.
Don’t Mess with Tonto!
