Doctor Robert Lyrics

Artist: The Beatles
Album: Revolver

Ring, my friend I said you'd 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 help 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 anyone 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
Doctor Robert

Doctor Robert
You're a new and better man
He help 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
Doctor Robert

I bought Revolver the week it arrived in my home town. Since then, I have listened to it thousands of times. I have never, ever understood this song. When I was very young, I thought the song had a cynical tone about it, and thought it must be about an obnoxious doctor. Now I'm not sure. I've had many ideas over the years -- and have gotten up at night to listen again to see whether any of my new interpretations panned out. None have. So, I suppose I'll never know. Great album, though.

Dr Robert (whose surname I've forgotten) was a real doctor in the USA who supplied drugs to rock musicians and who was eventually arrested.
