Dr. Feelgood

I don't want nobody, always

Sittin' around me and my man

I don't want nobody, always

Sittin' around there

Lookin' at me and that man

Be it my mother, my brother, my sister

Would you believe, I get up

Put on some clothes

Go out and help me find somebody for this self,

if I can'

Now I don't mind company

Because company's alright with me

Every once in awhile

Yes it is,

Now I don't mind company

Because company is alright with me

Every once in awhile, yeah

And ooh

When me an that man get to lovin'

I tell ya girl, I dig ya, but I don't have time

To sit, and chit, and sit and chit-chat an smile

Don't send me no doctor

Fill me up with all a those pills

I got me a man named Doctor Feelgood

Yeah! Yeah!

That man takes care of all my pains and ills

His name is Doctor Feelgood in the morning

To take care of business is really this man's game

And after one visit to Dr. Feelgood,

You understand why I feel good, in this pain.

Oh! Yeah! Oooh!

Oh, good God a-mighty

The man sure makes me feel real

Good!
