[1st verse:]
|
Liza Green felt awf'ly sick
|
Sent out for the doctor quick
|
The doctor called around, these words to say
|
"You're suff'ring from a love attack
|
And if you want to bring health back
|
A loving man must love you every day"
|
Then he turned to say goodbye
|
Just to hear Eliza cry:
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Doctor (oh, doctor)
|
Won't you kindly hear my plea? (oh, doctor)
|
I know, you know, doctor (oh, doctor)
|
Exactly what is best for me (oh, doctor)
|
Hear me sigh, hear me cry
|
Surely you ain't gonna let me die
|
For if some love will make me gain
|
Do your duty doctor, cure my pain
|
|
[2nd verse:]
|
Doctor said, "I can't decline
|
Curing patients is my line"
|
Then started lovin' Liza good and strong
|
Soon she was feeling well once more
|
The doctor then looked t'ward the door
|
And said, "I guess I'd best be getting along"
|
But Eliza hollered quick
|
"Oh, I fear I'm getting sick"
|
