I Don't Need No Doctor
W.A.S.P. · Live ... In The Raw [1987]
'Cause I know what's ailing me
I don't need no doctor
'Cause I know what's ailing me
All I need is my baby
You don't know I'm in misery
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
My prescription tells me that
I don't need no doctor
My prescription tells me that
All I need is my baby
You don't know I'm in misery
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
Well the doctor said I need rest- ooh ooh
He put me on the critical list- ooh ooh
Keeping me safe from harm- ooh ooh
All I need is her sweet charm- ooh ooh
He gave me a medicated lotion, that wouldn't do
Ooh, yeah my emotion, oh yeah, no doctor no!
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I Don't Need No Doctor
