Lyrics Fairport Convention

Fairport Convention

Doctor of Physick

"Take care daughter dear

Don't dream on any gallant men tonight

Take care daughter dear

For the doctor comes to steal your goods in the dead of night

Every sigh he'll hear,

So wear your relic near,

Doctor Monk unpacks his trunk tonight"

Oh, father dearI dreamed last night a man sat on my bed

And I fear

When I awoke I could not find my maidenhead

Every sigh he'll hear

So wear your relic near

Doctor Monk unpacks his trunk tonight

He'll have you all

He'll find young ladies pure as fallen snow

He'll have you all

If you think upon improper things, the doctor will know

Every sigh he'll hear

So wear your relic near

Doctor Monk unpacks his trunk tonight

Doctor Monk unpacks his trunk tonight
