Franklin, Aretha - Doctor's Orders Lyrics






Hoppin', hoppin' till I'm energized (Oh yeah)
'Cause I got something on my mind (What is it, baby)
So I-I said to my baby, leave the job early (Mmm, hmm)
'Cause I got a thing for you that's killin' me (I like this stuff)

You really know just how to thrill me {Uh-huh
You lay those pretty little words on me (Uh-huh)
So I'll be the doctor, let me work on you {I'm ready
And then I'll prescribe the things we gonna do {Hmm, okay, uh-huh

The doctor's order said "Get some love" (Oh, yeah)
Said you've been goin' without it long enough, long enough
So here I am, boy, to hook you up
And that's exactly what I'm dreamin' of (Ooh, boy, my boy)

I love it when you get sentimental (Oh, baby)
You can't be a no way but sweet and gentle
You know what to do when the world falls in
You give me the sweetest kind of medicine, I'm wit' you, wit' you, baby

One kiss {Hmm from you would be (Be)
The world sweetest kind of surgery (Uh-huh)
So you'll be the doctor, boy, won't you be (Be)
And write up a love prescription just for me
{I'm hangin' wit' you, baby Hang with me, baby

I spoke to the main man at that love pharmacy {Yeah
So let me just tell you, uh-huh, exactly what you need
I'll show you the directions (Ooh) but be sure you'll read the warnin' (Say what)
Try two kisses {Okay and then call me in the mornin'

Doctor's order said to "Get some love" {Yeah, get it, get it
Said you've been goin' without it long enough {Long enough, oh, oh
So here I am, girl, to hook you up
And that's exactly what I'm dreamin' of {Ooh, girl, my girl

Fever, fever has got a hold on you
I see a love fever {Uh-huh and you can hardly make it
I got fever, fever {Ooh (Uh-huh) about a hundred zero two
A love fever, fever and you don't think you can take it, help me

Oh {Oh...oh...oh...
It's hot {Say oh...oh... oh
Oh, I'm burnin' with the fever {Oh...oh...oh...
The doctor said (What did he say)
To get some love (And)
And I'm so, I'm so, I'm so in love with you, baby
You know you better be listenin' to what the doctor said

I feel better now, I don't know how
We did it, but we did
Will you keep huggin' me and workin' in me
And don't you ever quit it (Ooh, boy)
So get out of bed the doctor said
'Cause you're the cure I need
For anything that's wrong with me
I'm hangin' wit' you baby (Hang with me, baby)

The doctor's order said "Get some love" (Hang with me, baby)
Said you've been goin' without it long enough (Stay right in, hang with me, baby)
Here I am, boy, to hook you up (Oh, yeah)
That's exactly what I'm dreamin' of {Hey, hey}

You need to hear what the doctor said love and get you some love (Ooh)
Get to my love, get to my love, got to be love (Got to be love)
So here I am, boy {To hook you up to hook you up
And that's exactly what I'm dreamin' of, hey, hey (Hang with me, baby)

The doctor's order said "Get some love" (When do you want it)
Says you've been goin' without it long enough, long enough (Oh, how do you want it)
Here I am to hook you up
And that's exactly what I'm dreamin' of

Franklin, Aretha Doctor's Orders Comments
  1. A.... ....

    Aretha said her and Luther crossed swords over this song. In the making of this song he had her low in the mix she sounded like a background singer.

  2. 2.... R....

    SAD TO ME MY TUNE NO PAY JUSTS GONE MUCH OF MY WORK.

  3. M.... S....

    [Verse 1]
    Hopping, hopping till I'm energized
    'Cause I got something on my mind
    (What is it, baby?)
    So I, I said to my baby, leave the job early
    'Cause I got a thing for you that's killing me
    (I like this stuff)
    You really know just how to thrill me
    You lay those pretty little words on me
    So I'll be the doctor, let me work on you
    (I'm ready)
    And then I'll prescribe the things we gonna do
    (Okay)

    [Chorus 1]
    The doctor's orders said, get some love
    Said you've been goin' without it long enough, long enough
    So here I am, boy, to hook you up
    And that's exactly what I'm dreamin' of
    (Ooh, boy, my boy)

    [Verse 2]
    I love it when you get sentimental
    You can't be a no way but sweet and gentle
    You know what to do when the world falls in
    You give me the sweetest kind of medicine
    I'm wit' you, with you, baby
    One kiss from you would be
    The world sweetest kind of surgery
    So you'll be the doctor, boy, won't you be
    And write up a love prescription just for me
    (I'm hanging with you, baby Hang with me, baby)
    I spoke to the main man at that love pharmacy
    So let me just tell you, exactly what you need
    I'll show you the directions but be sure you'll read the warning
    (Say, what?)
    Try two kisses and then call me in the morning
    (Okay)

    [Chorus 1]

    [Bridge]
    Fever, fever has got a hold on you
    I see a love fever and you can hardly make it
    I got fever, fever about a hundred zero two
    A love fever, fever and you don't think you can take it, help me
