Dr. John

I look for joy in a strange place From the back of the bar From afar I see the look on my mama’s face When her son's in the corner, undone She says that my life is over But boy, you don't know what you got till it's gone Come put your head upon my shoulder She gave me her hand, but I ignored her Oh, Dr. John What am I doing What am I doing I wrong? ‘Cause I keep on trying Something ain't going Something ain't going on Oh, Dr. John I look for joy in a strange place From the back of a bar From afar I see the look on my daddy's face When his son's fallin’ over, undone Well Father my life is over Well I didn't know what I had now it's gone Can I lay my head upon your shoulder? If I fall asleep, will it be over?
