Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a doctor living in your town
There's a lawyer and an Indian, too
And neither doctor, lawyer, nor Indian chief
Could love you anymore than I do
[Verse 2]
There's a barrel of fish in the ocean
There's a lot of little birds in the blue
"And neither fish nor fowl" says the wise old owl
Could love you anymore than I do
[Verse 3]
No, no, no, it couldn't be true
That anyone else could love you like I do
I'm gonna warn all the dead eyed dicks
That you're the chick with the slickest tricks
And every tick of my ticker ticks for you, follow through
[Verse 4]
Tell the doc to stick to his practice
Tell the lawyer to settle his case
Send the Indian chief and his tommy-hawk
Back to little Rain-In-The-Face
[Verse 5]
'Cause you know, know, know it couldn't be true
That anyone else could love you like I do
[Verse 6]
No, no, no, it couldn't be true
That anyone else could love you like I do
And confidentially, I confess
I sent a note to the local press
That I'll be changing my home address
For you, follow through
[Verse 7]
Tell the doc to stick to his practice
Tell the lawyer to settle his case
Send the Indian chief and his tommy-hawk
Back to little Rain-In-The-Face
[Verse 8]
'Cause you know, know, know it couldn't be true
That anyone else could love you like I do
[Verse 9]
No, no, no, it couldn't be true
That anyone else could love you like I do
I'm gonna send a hot time, unique
To warn the boys down at Cripple Creek
That every dimple of your dimpled cheek
Is mine, so let's speak now
[Verse 10]
Tell the doc to stick to his practice
Tell the lawyer to settle his case
Send the Indian chief and his tommy-hawk
Back to little Rain-In-The-Face
[Verse 11]
'Cause you know, know, know it couldn't be true
That anyone else could love you like I do
[Verse 12]
Like I do
Like I do
Like I do
Like I do
