A tribute to the therapeutic effects of playing, hearing, watching and dancing to R O C K !
Like many things in life, things start off sweetly enough but can turn ugly....both sides of the same coin...the song on here is a cut down version of the full eight minutes including a bass and drum jam soon to be on the Folk of Oak album....enjoy! (-;

Guitar; C & T,
Amp; Orange Tiny Terror
Bass; Hohner violin copy
Drums; Roland TD-12 "Elm"
Harp: Hohner Special 20 Marine Band C#

I WAS FEELIN', ALONE AND BLUE
I DIDN'T KNOW JUST WHAT TO DO
GOT MY GUITAR DOWN FROM THE WALL
NOW I FEEL LIKE, TEN FEET TALL.

CHORUS-
DOCTOR ROCK!
HE'LL NEVER LET YOU DOWN
DOCTOR ROCK!
THE WORLD TREATS YOU LIKE A CLOWN
DOCTOR ROCK!
HE'LL MAKE YOU FEEL SO GOOD
DOCTOR ROCK!
HE'LL PUT YOU IN THE MOOD......FOR ROCK!

HAD A HEAVY PAIN IN MY HEAD
FELT SO BAD I TOOK TO MY BED
FOUND MY BASS HERE ON MY LAP
VIBES CLEARED OUT ALL THE CRAP

CHORUS

COMIN' HOME HAD A LOUSY DAY
NEED SOMETHIN' TO BLOW THE BLUES AWAY
GOT MY DRUMSTICKS IN MY HANDS
GONNA JOIN A ROCK AND ROLL BAND

CHORUS

LIFE KICKS YOU, WHEN YOU'RE DOWN
TAKE THE BEST REST CURE AROUND
GET THE WORLD TO GO AWAY
GET ON DOWN AND START TO PLAY

CHORUS X 2

Words and music Copyright Steve Trowbridge January 2014
