Prescription for the Blues lyrics
All day long I worry. All night long I'm blue.
I feel so awfully lonesome, I don't know what to do.
And so I ask you doctor, to see if you can find
something in your satchel to pacify my mind.
So, doctor, doctor, write me a prescription for the blues.
Those worried blues.
Let me tell you doctor why I'm in misery.
Once I had a lover. He went away from me.
I went to see the Egyptian and the hoodoo doctors too.
They shook their heads and told me there was nothing they could do.
Oh, doctor, doctor, why not write me a prescription for the blues.
Just like a little baby, all night long I cry.
Now, doctor, if you can't cure me, I'd just as soon to die.
So give me something poison, doctor won't you please,
then I'll sign a paper saying I died of heart disease.
Oh, doctor, doctor, write me a prescription for the blues, for the blues.
Write me a prescription for the blues.
