Went To The Doctor

Been across the country, been a-travellin' 'round

Been in every city, been in every town

Lived the hard life, drinkin' whiskey and wine

If the boogie woogie kills me, Lordie, I don't mind

I don't mind, lord, I don't mind

If the boogie woogie kills me, Lordie, I don't mind

Went to the doctor, doctor told me son

Ain't very wise what you done done

If you don't skip your sporting life

You gonna be a dead man, before you're forty-five

Before you're forty-five, before you're forty-five

You gonna be a dead man before you're forty-five

I tell you good people, 'bout a friend of mine

A picker and a singer, gave us all a good time

One day it hit him, hit him so bad

Nearly killed the best friend, I've ever had

I've ever had, I've ever had

I tell you good people it nearly killed him dead

Been across the country, been a-travellin' 'round

Been in every city, been in every town

Lived the hard life, drinkin' whiskey and wine

If the boogie woogie kills me, Lordie, I don't mind
