Doc, what ails me? I'm a sickly man
Doc it hurts all over give me what you can
Doc the pain is sinister it strikes me from deep within
Doc I need some medicine
Doc, I'm ignorant of this body of mine
Flesh and blood's a mystery I can't define
Doc I got no money now do you understand
Doc I need some medicine
Doc there's bitterness and poison in my brain
My heart is pumping hatred to my my weakening veins
deaf and dumb I'm striking out at everything I can
Doc I need some medicine
Doc what ails me? can I be saved?
Can you cure the thing my failing body can't escape?
Or is this a symptom that affects each dying man?
Doc I need some medicine
Doc I need some medicine
Doc I need some medicine
