Dr. john

I look for joy in a strange place
in the back of the bar
from afar
I see the look on my momma's face
when her son's in the corner undone

She says that my life is over
But boy you don't know what you got till it's gone
Come put your head upon my shoulder
She gave me her hand but I ignored her

oh Dr. John
What am I doing
When I'm wrong
Cause I Keep on trying...
Something ain't going, something ain't going on
Oh Dr John

I look for joy in a strange place
from the back of the bar
From afar
I see the look on my Daddy's face
When his son's fallen over, undone
Well father my life is over
Well I didn't know what I had now it's gone
Can I lay my head upon your shoulder
If I fall asleep will it be over...

Oh Dr John
What am I doing
When I'm wrong
Cause I Keep on trying...
Something ain't going, something ain't going on
Oh Dr John

What am I doing
When I am wrong

Cause I keep on trying
Something ain't going, something ain't going on

They say I'm a big heartbreaker
But doctor I've never hurt ya
It isn't that obvious?

Oh Dr John
What am I doing
When I'm wrong

Cause I keep on trying

Something ain't going, something ain't going on

Oh Dr John

I keep on trying

You're not alone
You're not alone

Oh Dr John

You're not alone
You're not alone
