Don’t Give a Dose to the One You Love Most
Don’t give a dose to the one you love most.
Give her some marmalade... give her some toast.
You can give her the willies or give her the blues.
But the dose that you give her will get back to youse.
I once had a lady as sweet as a song.
She was my darlin’, and she was my dear.
But she had a dose, and she passed it along.
Now she’s gone, but the dose is still there.
So, don’t give a dose to the one you love most.
Give her some marmalade... give her some toast.
You can give her a partiridge up in a pear tree,
But the dose that you give her might get back to me.
So if you’ve got an itchin’...if you’ve got a drip,
Don’t sit there wishin’ for it to go ’way.
If there’s a thing on the tip of your thing or your lip,
Run down to the clinic today, and say...
“I won’t give a dose to the one I love most.
I’ll give her some marmalade... give her some toast.”
Give her the willies or give her the blues,
But the dose that you give her will get back to you.
