Prescription For The Blues Lyrics & Chords By Watkins Family Hour

All day long I worry
All night long I am blue
I'm so very lonesome
I don't know what to do

So look into your satchel and see if you can find
Something for me doctor that'll satisfy my mind
Doctor, doctor, write me a prescription for the blues

Well let me tell you doctor
Why I'm in misery
Once I had a lover
She ran across the sea

I went to see gypsy and the voodoo doctors too
They shook their heads and told there was nothing they could do
Doctor, doctor, write me a prescription for the blues

Just like a little baby
All night long I cry
If you can not cure me
Doctor I'm bound to die

So give me something poison, doctor won't you please
Then I'll sign a paper saying I died from heart disease
Doctor, doctor, write me a prescription for the blues
Doctor, doctor, write me a prescription for the blues
