Doctor

(الألبوم: 1959 - 1995)

My mate said don't get on that horse
He's made a fool of better men than you
But I was young and foolish
Not to mention being stubborn like a mule
One second I was in the air
Next I was feet up kissing dirt
Through the haze I heard a voice say
'Bring the doctor I think the boy is hurt'

Doctor, the light is growing dim
And I've heard a calling from the other side
Doctor there's so much I haven't done
And there's that sparkle that I've seen in Becky'e eyes
Oh doctor I'm too young to die

They took me to a shady spot
And the doctor took one look and softly spoke
'There's really nothing I can do
Bring his mther I think his back is broke'
It was then I heard a voice say
Something bout a good for nothing son
Why'd you go and do a thing like that
Bring the preacher I think his time has come

Doctor, the light is growing dim
And I've heard a calling from the other side
Doctor there's so much I haven't done
And there's that sparkle that I've seen in Becky'e eyes
Oh doctor I'm too young to die

The darkness fell around me
And up ahead the paerly gates came into view
Saint Peter said 'Hey cowboy c'mon in
We've been expecting you'
But I said doctor, the light is growing dim
And I've heard a calling from the other side
Doctor there's so much I haven't done
And there's that sparkle that I've seen in Becky'e eyes
But Isaid Doctor the light is growing dim
Doctor there's so much I haven't done
Doctor I'm too young to die
