I was feeling down and out
With a plague upon my house
Under the weather, trying to forget her
Cast out of lovers lane
With a one way ticket down the drain
Chance of survival looking slim
Needing a ray of hope, something to believe
Calling out for help
Somebody save me, somebody save me

Miracle Cure, Miracle Cure, Miracle Cure
Complete recovery when she laid her hands on me

Winding on down the road
When I came upon a traveling show
I was invited to step right up
Here was a girl so fine
Giving eyesight to the blind
And guaranteeing to change my luck
A shining ray of hope, something to believe
Thunder and lightning bolts
Her love would save me, her love would save me

Miracle Cure, Miracle Cure, Miracle Cure
Complete recovery when she laid her hands on me

I was feeling so alive
Heart and soul had been revived
After one night of her healing touch
But then my bubble burst
And things took a turn for the worse

She grabbed her snake oil and hit the road
There went my ray of hope, for all that it was worth
Turns out her love was just
The greatest scam on earth, greatest scam on earth

Miracle Cure, Miracle Cure, Miracle Cure
I need a little TLC, someone to lay her hands on me
