Gotta Get It Worked On - Delbert McClinton

When Loretta left me back here in Saint Paul

My head started spinnin', my heart hit the wall

Now I gotta get it worked on

Gotta get it worked on

Well, I don’t think it’s broken but it sure hurts a lot

Like a macho man, I said I’ll fix it myself

I can tell already I’m gonna need some help

Now I gotta get it worked on

I gotta get it worked on

Yeah, I’m gon' have to get me some professional help

Well now I went to see a doctor and he took one look

He just shook his head and closed his medical book

Said you better get it worked on

Better get it worked on

It ain’t gonna kill ya, you’re not gonna die

Maybe I should go ahead and open up and just let it bleed

'Cause if I let it turn to stone

I’ll never find the love I need

Maybe I should go ahead and open up and just let it bleed

'Cause if I let it turn to stone

I’ll never find the love I need

I went down to New Orleans to see Miss Laroux

She said You’re too far gone there ain’t a thing I can do

But you better get it worked on

Better get it worked on

I can give you a number of someone to call

Gotta get it worked on

Better get it worked on
