Doctor Robert - The Beatles

Album: Revolver

genre: Pop

Ring my friend, I said you call Doctor Robert
Day or night he’ll be there any time at all, Doctor Robert
Doctor Robert, you’re a new and better man
He helps you to understand
He does everything he can, Doctor Robert

If you’re down he’ll pick you up, Doctor Robert
Take a drink from his special cup, Doctor Robert
Doctor Robert, he’s a man you must believe
Helping everyone in need
No one can succeed like Doctor Robert

Well, well, well, you’re feeling fine
Well, well, well, he’ll make you… Doctor Robert

My friend works for the national health, Doctor Robert
Don’t pay money just to see yourself with Doctor Robert
Doctor Robert, you’re a new and better man
He helps you to understand
He does everything he can, Doctor Robert

Well, well, well, you’re feeling fine
Well, well, well, he’ll make you… Doctor Robert

Ring my friend, I said you’d call Doctor Robert
Ring my friend, I said you’d call Doctor Robert
Doctor Robert

Revolver Danzig album lyrics
Paul McCartney said about "Doctor Robert": "There's some fellow in New York, and in the States, we'd hear people say: 'You can get everything off him; any pills you want.' It was a big racket, but a joke too about this fellow who cured everyone of everything with all these pills and tranquilizers, injections for this and that; he just kept New York high. That's what Dr. Robert is all about, just a pill doctor who sees you all right."
