Lyrics
Good Company
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My doctor told me if my headache gets much worse
The best thing that I can do is get myself a nurse
Let her give me the kiss of life and after that
You watch my headache disappear three seconds flat
And as you know, I don't really want you to go
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company
, The other morning I forget now where I'd been
Some fella cornered me said "hey man what's your scene?"
I told him frankly that I wasn't in a play
That if I was I wouldn't give my scene away
And as you know I don't really want you to go
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company
Altogether everybody turn and touch your toes
When I stop to give the signal
That's when I would like you
That's when I would like you
To go oh...oh
Muhammad Ali better known as Cassius Clay
Boy what a boxer he was and still is today
I had a go myself once thought that I was him
But unlike Muhammad baby I could never win
And as you know I don't really want you to go
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need
Much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company
