Country Doctor

Bruce Hornsby, The Range

Deep down in the south county Over where the paper mill runs Lived a man, a young country doctor With the perfect wife and sons Well he worked his days And Sundays he'd pray And nobody knew Why the wife slowly withered away I saw the country doctor, to ask him what was wrong with me He was caught unaware, accidental and devil may care Behind the curtain I see, two shadows in front of me Oh nobody know the trouble I've seen My guess, there was another woman And with the kids and the money there was a lot to lose He said she had an rare affliction And he was doing all he could do And we all believed him Felt so sorry and then I thought once he was a fine man Now I don't remember when I saw the country doctor, to ask him what was wrong with me He was caught unaware, accidental and devil may care Behind the curtain I see, bottles unmarked in front of me Whoa nobody knows the trouble I've seen I saw the country doctor, in a place he didn't see me Way out in the middle of the night where he thought no one could see Over there in the parlor room, making eyes, hands roaming free Someone soon must know, the trouble I've seen Did you think about the young ones One day they'll know it was you And if they let you off one day Who then will you turn to And my wife remembers one thing She said I remember kind of strangely At a friends wedding one time It was a look that he gave me --- Country Doctor - Bruce Hornsby
