Lyrics
Here's a story, A little bit gory, A little bit happy, A little bit sa - hah - had. 'Bout Lydia Pinkham, Her medicinal compound, And how it drove her to the bad. Chorus: We'll drink, a drink, a drink To Lidia Pink, a pink, a pink The savior of the human ra-hay-hayce She invented a medicinal compound (original line: Whose effects God can only replace.) Most efficatious in every case. Ebeneezer, thought he was Julius Caeser, So they put him in a home. There they gave him Medicinal Compound And now he's Emperor of Rome! [Chorus] Freddy Clinger, the opera singer Would break a glass with his voice tis said, Rubbed his tonsils with medicinal compound, Now they break glasses over his head! [Chorus] Johnny Hammer, had a te-te-terrible st-stammer He could hardly say a wor-hur-d. So they gave him medicinal compound And now he's seen but never heard! [Chorus] Uncle Pauly, he tiny and smally He was the smallest man in town. Rubbed his body with medicinal compound And now he weighs three hundred pounds! [Chorus] Lily died and she went to heaven, All the church bells they did ring. She took with her, medicnal compound So Hark the Herald angels sing! [Chorus]
