Leave a late show Still feel alive Want a place to go Round about five Down to the doctors Down to the doctors Come on down to the doctors Make you feel good all night Everybody needs a shot of r'n'b So come on down to my surgery Down to the doctors Down to the doctors Come on down to the doctors Make you feel good all night Eight bars on piano Down to the doctors Down to the doctors Come on down to the doctors Make you feel good all night Come here baby Ain't gonna do you no harm I just want to shoot Some rock'n'roll in your arm Down to the doctors Down to the doctors Come on down to the doctors Make you feel good all night
