While I was laying in a hospital bed
|
A rock n' roll nurse went through my head
|
She says, 'Hold out your arm, stick out yo' tongue
|
I got some pills, boy, I'm 'on give you one'
|
|
She went through my head, through my head
|
Through my head, through my head
|
She went to my head, through my head
|
While I was layin' in a hospital bed
|
|
She gave me thrills from my toes
|
For leggin' ache
|
She gave me pills from her love
|
But a little too late
|
|
She gave me pills for my heart
|
To put me at ease
|
The rock n' roll nurse
|
Shook me dead to my knees
|
|
She went through my head, through my head
|
Through my head, through my head
|
She went through my head, through my head
|
While I was layin' in the hospital bed
|
|
Nurses, nurses, can't you see
|
I don't dig this jive you givin' me?
|
Give me yo' pill or give me your shot
|
You got me wonderin' what, what have I got?
|
|
She went through my head, through my head
|
Through my head, through my head
|
Through my head, she went through my head
|
While I was layin' in that hospital bed
|
|
Doctor, doctor, run here 'n see
|
I don't dig this jive this nurse givin' me
|
She gimme a shot, she give me yo' pills
|
I'm takin' this junk a'gin my will
|
|
She went through my head, through my head
|
Through my head, to my head
|
He went through my head, through my head
|
While I was layin' in that hospital bed
|
|
Ow! Look out man, Ow!
