If you wanna feel real nice, just ask the Rock & Roll Doctor's advice...
What's your favorite Lowell George-era Little Feat song?



There was a woman in Georgia didn't feel just right
She had fever all day and chills at night
Now things got worse, yes a serious bind
At times like this it takes a man with such style I cannot often find
A doctor of the heart and a doctor of mind

If you like country with a boogie beat he's the man to meet
If you like the sound of shufflin' feet he can't be beat
If you wanna feel real nice, just ask the Rock and Roll doctor's advice

It's just a country town but patients come
From Mobile to Moline from miles around
Nagodoches to New Orleans
In beat-up old cars or in limousines
To meet the doctor of soul, he's got his very own thing

Two degrees in be-bop, a PHD in swing
He's the master of rhythm he's a rock and roll king

If you like country with a boogie beat he's the man to meet (he's the man to meet)
If you like the sound of shufflin' feet he can't be beat (I say he can't be beat)
If you... If you wanna
If you wanna feel real nice, just ask the Rock and Roll doctor's advice

3. "....and if you give me.....weed.....whites and wine...."
Love that song. :thumbsup:

Probably the only mention of Tonopah outside of Nevada, ever. ;)

2. I've seen the bright lights of Memphis
Edited on Thu Dec-02-04 09:49 AM by mac56
And the Commodore Hotel
And underneath the streetlamp
I met a Southern belle
Well she took me to the river
Where she cast her spell
And in that Southern moonlight
She sang a song so well

If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tenessee lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland

Well we made all the hotspots
My money flowed like wine
And then that low-down Southern whiskey
Began to fog my mind

And I don't remember church bells
Or the money I put down
On the white picket fence and boardwalk
Of the house at the edge of town

Oh but boy do I remember
The strain of her refrain
And the nights we spent together
And the way she'd call my name

Well it's been a year since you ran away
Yes that guitar player should could play
She always liked to sing along
She's always handy with a song

And then one night in the lobby
Of the Commodore Hotel
I chanced to meet a bartender
Who said he knew her well

And as he handed me a drink
He began to hum a song
And all the boys there at the bar
Began to sing along...

If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tenessee lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland

4. "Let It Roll"
It has a tendency to make me a little...crazy.

On the other hand, when they give my sweety, Shaun Murphy, the mic, that's always good too. Damn, such nasty sounds coming out of the mouth of such a delicate thing. ;-)

5. Roll another one
just like the other one.
You've been holding onto it
And I sure would like a hit.

Don't bogart that joint my friend
pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint my friend
pass it over to me.

6. For the afternoon shift: "Fat Man in the Bathtub"
Edited on Thu Dec-02-04 01:50 PM by Richardo
...with the blues.

Spotcheck Billy got down on his hands and knees
He said "Hey momma, hey let me check your oil all right?"
She said "No, no honey, not tonight
Comeback Monday, comeback Tuesday, then I might"

I said Juanita, my sweet Jaunita, what are you up to?
My Juanita
I said Jaunita, my sweet taquita, what are you up to?
My Juanita

Don't want nobody who won't dive for dimes
Don't want no speedballs 'cause I might die trying
Throw me a line, throw me a line
'Cause there's a fat man in the bathtub with the blues
I hear you moan, I hear you moan, I hear you moan

Billy got so sad, dejected, put on his hat and start to run
Runnin' down the street yelling at the top of his lungs
All I want in this life of mine is some good clean fun
All I want in this life and time is some hit and run

I said Juanita, my sweet Jaunita, what are you up to?
My Jaunita
I said Jaunita, my sweet taquito, what are you up to?
My Juanita

Put my money in your meter baby so it won't run down
But you caught me in the squeeze play on the cheesy side of town
Throw me a dime, throw me a line
'Cause there's a fat man in the bathtub with the blues
I hear you moan, I hear you moan, I hear you moan
