Well, I went to see my doctor just the other day (guitar fill)

And I'm got to tell you what the man had to say (guitar fill)

        A
Well, he said, "Hey boy, you just gotta slow down
   E
You can't keep a traipsin' all over town
    A
After givin' you a physical check
     B7
I've come to the conclusion you're a total wreck"

My whole body's in a jitter, I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown

I've made up my mind, I'd better change my ways(guitar fill)
   E
My shattered nerves have seen better days(guitar fill)

Well, no more girls for a week or two

No more movies or stayin' out late

My baby, have to find herself another date
