Went to the Doctor Songtext

von Hans Theessink

Been across the country, been a-travellin' 'round
Been in every city, been in every town
Lived the hard life, drinkin' whiskey and wine
If the boogie woogie kills me, Lordie, I don't mind

I don't mind, lord, I don't mind
If the boogie woogie kills me, Lordie, I don't mind

Went to the doctor, doctor told me son
Ain't very wise what you done done
If you don't skip your sporting life
You gonna be a dead man, before you're forty-five

Before you're forty-five, before you're forty-five
You gonna be a dead man before you're forty-five

I tell you good people, 'bout a friend of mine
A picker and a singer, gave us all a good time
One day it hit him, hit him so bad
Nearly killed the best friend, I've ever had

I've ever had, I've ever had
I tell you good people it nearly killed him dead

Been across the country, been a-travellin' 'round
Been in every city, been in every town
Lived the hard life, drinkin' whiskey and wine
If the boogie woogie kills me, Lordie, I don't mind
