Down in
Tuskegee
Alabama
You know the men were really sick
They had that disease called syphilis,
but that was the cure for him.
Now the doctors were supposed to help him,
but they gave him no relief.
You see, they had an illness too,
called that racial disease, so to speak.
And I saw the president, he came on
TV, saying we're so sorry,
causing so much misery.
But for those men down in
Tuskegee, sorry came way too late.
Cause most of them are upped and died,
and a few alive can't wait.
Hey doctor, hey doctor, you took a
Hippocratic
Oath.
To heal and not to harm,
but for some it was a joke.
Now here's what I'm a -sayin'
Physician, heal thyself
Cause your disease is gonna kill you
And that will ruin your health
I say the disease is gonna kill you
And that will ruin your health
Let's get you blue.
