Dear Doctor

[ti:Dear Doctor] [ar:The Rolling Stones] [al:Beggars Banquet] [offset:0] Oh help me please doctor I'm damaged There's a pain where there once was a heart It's sleepin it's a beatin' Can't ya please tear it out and preserve it Right there in that jar Oh help me please mama I'm sick'ning It's today that's the day of the plunge Oh the gal I'm to marry Is a bow legged sow I've been soakin' up drink like a sponge Don't ya worry get dressed cried my mother As she plied me with bourbon so sour Pull your socks up put your suit on Comb your long hair down For you will be wed in the hour So help me please doctor I'm damaged There's a pain where there once was a heart I'm sleeping it's a beating Can't ya please take it out and preserve it Right there in that jar yeah Oh help me please doctor I'm damaged There's a pain where there once was a heart It's sleepin it's a beating Can't ya please tear it out and preserve it Right there in that jar I was trembling as I put on my jacket It had creases as sharp as a knife I put the ring in my pocket But there was a note And my heart it jumped into my mouth It read darling I'm sorry to hurt you But I have no courage to speak to your face But I'm down in virginia with your cousin lou There be no wedding today So help me please doctor I'm damaged You can put back my heart in its hole Oh mama I'm crying Tears of relief And my pulse is now under control
