Bruce Springsteen - Lady And The Doctor lyrics

The lady keeps the doctor in a place inside her pocket

The circle made her circle like a wheel

The doctor gives a strange love, but the lady she don't knock it

She's glad to get a piece of anything

Because the lady needs the medicine ????????????

Doctor needs the lady to see

The doctor keeps the lady in a page in a book

on the history of communicable diseases

The lady's been to school, she lets the doctor play it cool.

He writes the script, she follows his lead.

'Cause the doctor writes love story so fine

The lady's learned to read between the lines

Sometime

The doctor, he takes housecalls where he visits the animals

in their stalls, shoots them full of juice and then goes home.

The lady hits the supermarket where she rides the aisles in a shopping cart

'till she feels she's played enough of the part to set by ooh,

The lady feels its enough to just be good.

But the doctor has his need to be understood.

The doctor feels he's so abused and the lady feels she's so unused

and demands the doctor tends her daily parts.

Ooh, but the doctor just can't do it because so long ago the lady

blew it, they're too old now to make another start.

The lady feels the doctor's made of stone.

The doctor' heart, it just ain't fond of ?home?
