Doctor’s Orders (Re-Recorded) - Carol Douglas

Hello

Hi, honey, it’s me

I went to see the doctor today

'Cause ever since you’ve been gone

I had a pain deep down inside

He says there’s nothing wrong with me

I’m just missin' my man

So honey, please

Come on home as soon as you can

Doctor’s orders say

There’s only one thing for me

Nothing he can do

'Cause only you can cure me

Says in my condition

Love’s the best physician

He’s prescribed a potion

Full of warm emotion

Every day

A lovin' spoonful to be taken

It’s the only thing

To stop this empty heart of mine from breaking

Won’t get better

Till you’re back again, he told me

Doctor’s orders

Need your lovin' arms to hold me

Darling, now I know

There ain’t no doubt about it

I’m so hooked on your love

I can’t live without it

You’re away

But please don’t treat me like a stranger

'Cause doctor’s orders say

One kiss for me and I am out of danger

Please understand how I feel, honey

I know you got a lot of things on your mind

Oh, but I’m missin' you so bad

Please, oh, please come on home

Doctor’s orders say

There’s only one thing for me

Nothing he can do

'Cause only you can cure me

Says in my condition

Love’s the best physician

He’s prescribed a potion

Full of warm emotion

Darling, now

I know there ain’t no doubt about it

I’m so hooked on your love

I can’t live without it
