Pokey LaFarge - Close The Door lyrics

Close the Door, close the door, don't let the doctor come in Close the door and lock it tight I've got no money for the doctor tonight Three weeks I spent in the hospital It left me with a stack of bills sky high I'll never be able to pay them I know I wish I would have stayed there and died La dee da dee da, la dee da dee dum… Tell me why, please, tell me why We must pay for the things that we need While a doctor gets richer off me each day I barely have the money to eat So I'll never go to the doctor no more No matter how sick I get No doctor will ever get my dough 'Cause I work too damn hard for that La dee da dee da, la dee da dee dum… Oh, the doctor he sticks his needle in He says just to take some blood What he claimed it was not red but green And boys he took all that he could 1st La dee da dee da, la dee da dee dum…
