carol douglas talking to someone on the telephone over the
female background vocal group singing over carol douglas’ continuous spoken voice during the musical break
ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh
doctor’s orders say there’s only one thing for me
nothing he can do ’cause only you can cure me
it says in my condition love’s the best physician
he’s prescribed a potion full of warm emotion
every day
a loving spoonful to be taken
it’s the only way
to stop this empty heart of mine from breaking
i won’t get better until you’re back again
he told me doctor’s orders need your loving arms to hold me
darling now i know there is no doubt about it
i’m so fond of your love i can’t live without it
you’re away
but please don’t treat me like a stranger
doctor’s orders say
one kiss from you and i am out of danger
female background vocal group singing over carol douglas’ spoken adlib during the interlude
ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh hey hey hey hey
doctor’s orders say there’s only one thing for me
nothing he can do ’cause only you can cure me
it says in my condition god’s my best physician
he’s prescribed a potion full of warm emotion
i won’t get better until you’re back again
