I don't need no doctor

 'Cause I know what's ailing me 

I don't need no doctor

 'Cause I know what's ailing me



I've been too long away from my baby, yeah 

I'm coming down with a misery



I don't need no doctor 

For my prescription to be filled 

(I don't need no doctor) 

(I don't need no doctor)



No, no, no, I don't need no doctor 

For my prescription to be filled, yeah 

Only my baby's arms could ever 

Could ever take away this chill



Now the doctor say I need rest 

For I need is her tenderness 

He put me on the critical list 

When all I need is her sweet kiss 

He gave me a medicated lotion 

But it didn't soothe my emotion, yeah



I don't need no doctor 

For my hope to live is gone 

(I don't need no doctor) 

(I don't need no doctor) 

No, no, I don't need no doctor 

For my hope to live is gone



All I need is my baby, please! 

Won't you please just come on home? 

Come on home
