Wrote a letter this mornin'
Put it in your hat
'Cause no one to read it
And I know you knew that
I bought a joke, a trick or two
Just to bring and show you
Caught you with the trickster too
Sometimes I wonder how you knew
An hypnotist, fancy talker
Ruben Remus ain't no doctor
ย
I knew the man, I tried to remember just where it was, I'd seen his face
Long ago, in a movie show, he was like that man singin' bass
Knew him by his nursery rhyme "The story of the rabbit man"
Fell right in and said to him, "I'd like to help you if I can"
I know the film would only shock you
Ruben Remus ain't no doctor
ย
He only needed what you had
Asked for nothing more
Said he'd like to take you on
But it's been done before
You couldn't see he's a travelin' man
And he cannot take your hand
It's very hard to understand
Why his songs were never banned
That man would never knock you
Ruben Remus ain't no doctor
ย
No one seen you since he's been gone
It's been a day, maybe more
I took a walk in your yard
And knocked on your back door
Why won't you let me in?
I'm not the one who did you in
Is Mr. Remus still your friend?
You say you don't remember him
Turn me down, would you?
Well, I've got news for you
Turn me down, would you?
Can't you tell?
I'm gonna change your mind before I'm trough
