"Rock And Roll Doctor" lyrics

"Rock And Roll Doctor"
(feat. James Petralli)
(originally by Little Feat)


There was a woman in Georgia didn't feel just right
She had fever all day and chills at night
Now things got worse, yes a serious bind
At times like this it takes a man with such style I cannot often find
A doctor of the heart and a doctor of mind

If you like country with a boogie beat
He's the man to meet
If you like the sound of shufflin' feet
He can't be beat
If you wanna feel real nice
Just ask the Rock and Roll doctor's advice

It's just a country town but patients come
From Mobile to Moline from miles around
Nagodoches to New Orleans
In beat-up old cars or in limousines
To meet the doctor of soul, he's got his very own thing

Two degrees in be-bop, a PHD in swing
He's the master of rhythm, he's a rock and roll king

If you like country with a boogie beat
He's the man to meet (he's the man to meet)
If you like the sound of shufflin' feet
He can't be beat (I say, he can't be beat)
If you...
If you wanna...
If you wanna feel real nice
Just ask the Rock and Roll doctor's advice
