sickness and diseases

Lyrics

i do hate to see a rover crippled in the stones, now he's one step nearer to the ground, and i do hate to see a hawker broken in the bones, sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down, sickness and diseases pull you down, everybody's got the sickness, everybody's down, running to the doctor with a pound, "doctor, doctor, do you have a needle big enough for me?", sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down, sickness and diseases pull you down, sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down, sickness and diseases pull you down, my friend billy, well he looks so ill, his face is white as milk, everybody runs for miles when he's in town, he's got every known disease and some without a name, sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down, sickness and diseases pull you down, if you want to live to be a poor man or a prince, pay good attention when evil times abound, always listen to what your mother says and stay in bed at night, sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down, sickness and diseases pull you down, sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down, sickness and diseases pull you down
