This one is for all you ladies out there who ever had a toothache.
I'd like to give you a little tip.
I've got a dentist
Who's over seven feet tall.
Oh, i've got a dentist, baby
The man is over seven feet tall
His name is doctor john long
And he answers every call
You know, i went to long john's office
"doctor the pain is killing me"
Oh, i went to long john's office
"doctor the pain is killing
He says "don't worry baby
It's just your cavity that needs a little filling"
He took out his trusty drill
Told me to open wide
He said it wouldn't hurt me
But he filled my hole inside
Oh long john, don't you ever go away
Cause thrill me when you drill me
And i don't need no novocain today
When he got done on drilling he said
"oh baby that's goingo to cost you
Ten"
See, i gona thought it would be more like twelve, twelve and a half
When he got done on drilling he said
"oh sweet mama that's goingo to cost you
Ten
But if that ever starts in throbbing then
Come back and see old long john
Again and again and again and again and again"
Girl, you know i will
