We are the nation's physicians
|
D G
|
Yes, we give to our lobbies every day
|
D B C7
|
We will fight against disease when the money comes with ease
|
G D G
|
And when we get together we say
|
C G
|
Hooray for A.M.A.
|
C G D
|
And for us doctors gluts of higher pay
|
G D B C7
|
If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
|
G D G
|
'Cause that's the free enterprise way
|
|
We've divided up the sections of the body
|
Every day we specialize more and more
|
But we really love to stitch the diseases of the rich
|
We are sure there is a clinic for the poor
|
Hooray for the A.M.A
|
And for us doctors gluts of higher pay
|
If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
|
'Cause that's the free enterprise way
|
|
And our waiting rooms are getting pretty crowded
|
It is sad to see our patients sit and bleed
|
But if you must use our ointment then you must have an appointment
|
Or who'll pay for those magazines you read
|
Hooray for the A.M.A
|
And for us doctors gluts of higher pay, higher pay
|
If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
|
'Cause that's the free enterprise way
|
|
And now the government is getting too ambitious
|
Yes, we know they want to socialize us all
|
Well our oath was hippocratic but with money we're fanatic
|
So we'll see you in Canada in the fall [1]
|
Hooray for the A.M.A.
|
And for us doctors gluts of higher pay
|
If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
|
'Cause that's the free enterprise way
