Newman, Randy - Back On My Feet Again Lyrics
Doctor, let me tell you something about myself
I'm a college man and I'm very wealthy
I've got no time to trifle with trash like you
Cause I must be 'bout my business
And he makes more money than you ever will
He just got married to a Polish girl
With a space between her teeth
My sister's a dancer up in Baltimore
At a small cafe on Main
But she ran off with a Negro from the Eastern Shore
Doctor, she didn't even know his name
Get me back on my feet again
Open the door and set me free
Get me back on my feet again
He took her down to Mobile in a railroad train
He said, "Driver, take me to the Hotel Paree."
He went into the washroom
Washed his face and hands
Doctor, when he come out he was white as you and me
He said, "Girl, I ain't a Negro I'm a millionaire
As you can plainly see
So many women were after my money
But I'm proud to say you were only after me
"I'm going to teach you to play polo and how to water ski
And you won't have to dance no more
And I no longer have to pretend to be
A Negro from the Eastern Shore."
Get me back on my feet again
Back on my feet again
Open the door and set me free
Get me back on my feet again
Doctor, doctor, what you say
How 'bout letting me out today?
Ain't no reason for me to stay
Everybody's so far away
Get me back on my feet again
Back on my feet again
Open the door and set me free
Get me back on my feet again

Newman, Randy Back On My Feet Again Comments
Another brilliant singer and writer I am a fan of...would fork out to see him live before time takes him
and what great memories of when this was first released...
pure genius
One of my favorite albums..
I owned this album. This was the version on it. BTW, the cover photo.....absolutely Louisiana early 70's.
My song
Wonder who played guitar on this. Reminds me of Ry Cooder.
Acoustic guitar was Ron Elliot
Sharp ear! The bottleneck is indeed Ry Cooder, who had played with Randy on some of his earlier records.
There have been many disturbing things throughout the history of human kind.
(I could go listing but I won't...)
but one of those things is that this only has 1,321 views.
I am disgusted with humanity.
Ugh, I am distgusted with you
It's all good
