What do you want
Dr. Hook · Sometimes You win [1979]
Whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, what do you want for your birthday
All I want, I want, want, want is you
If you want a diamond ring to shine, shine, shine
Or a fancy little watch to tell the time, time, time
Every morning all I want to find, find, find is you, I said you
What do you want, whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, all I want, I want, want, want is you
If you want a diamond ring to shine, shine, shine
Or a fancy little watch to tell the time, time, time
Every morning all I want to find, find, find is you, I said you
What do you want, what do you want for Christmas
Whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, what do you want for your birthday
All I want, I want, want, want is...
What do you want, what do you want for Christmas
Whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, what do you want for your birthday
All I want, I want, want, want is...
What do you want, what do you want for Christmas
Whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, what do you want for your birthday
All I want, I want, want, want is...

What Do You Want
Dr. Hook's 1979 single "What Do You Want" stands as a quintessential example of the band's late-career resurgence, blending their signature blend of rock and roll with a polished, radio-friendly sheen. Released on the album *Sometimes You Win*, the track captures the essence of the early 1980s pop-rock landscape while retaining the raw energy that defined their earlier work with The Medicine Show. The song features the band's characteristic vocal interplay and driving rhythm, serving as a testament to their ability to evolve without losing their core identity. As a staple of their discography, it remains a defining recording that showcases the band's enduring appeal and musical craftsmanship during a pivotal era in their career.
