Jug Band Music - The Lovin Spoonful

I was down in Savannah

Eatn' Cream and Bannanas

When the heat just made me faint

I began to get crosseyed

I thought I was lost

I'd begun to see things as they ain't

As the relatives gathered to see

what's the matter

The doctor came to see was I fine

But the doctor said give him jug

band music

It seems to make him feel just fine

I was told a little tail about a

skinny as a rail

L A put cowboy with a headache

He was hung up in the desert

swappin' rats

And tryn' ta get a drink of water

With his knees gettin' mud caked

And I'll tell you and exceptance how

He stumbled into Memphis Tenassee

Hard cried and lookin' dust baked

We gave i'm little water

A little bit of wine

He opened up his eyes

But they didn't seem to shine

And the doctor said give him jug

band music

It seems to make him feel just fine

So if you ever get sickly

Get sis to run quickly

To the dusty closet shelf

And pull out a washboard

And play a guitar chord

And do a little do it yourself

Call on your neighbors

To put down their labors

And come and play the

hardware in time

Cause the doctor said give him jug

band music

It seems to make him feel just fine

I was floatin' in the ocean

Greased with suntan lotion

When I got wiped-out by a beach boy

He was surfin' when he hit me

But jumped off his board to get me

And he dragged me by the armpit

Like a child's toy

As we staggered into land

With all the waders eatin' sandwiches

And tried to mooch a towel from

the hoi polloi

He emptied out his eardrums

I emptied out mine

And everybody knows that the

very last line

Is the doctor said give him jug

band music

It seems to make him feel just fine

And the doctor said give him jug

band music

It seems to make him feel just fine
