• Aching Tooth Blues  (Ode to Maureen – get well soon!!!)

  
  

   

  
  

  My baby’s got a toothache

  
  

  I said my baby’s got a toothache

  
  

  And it really sounds like a pain

  
  

  Surely God, she has some pain

  
  

   

  
  

  She says that her molar’s infected

  
  

  And it leaves her feeling dejected

  
  

  Oh yes she cries “my tooth is infected”

  
  

  “And it really does bring me down” – You know what I’m talking about

  
  

   

  
  

  Chorus

  
  

  She’s got that wisdom tooth feeling

  
  

  I say my baby she needs some healing – bring it home baby

  
  

  She’s got the bad molar blues

  
  

  She’s got some real bad so sad molar blues

  
  

  She’s got the aching tooth blues – yes she does

  
  

  She’s got them real deep down turning’ a frown tooth aching blues – that’s right

  
  

   

  
  

  She said to the Doctor “please help me”

  
  

  “Cause I can’t take this pounding in my brain”

  
  

  She screamed “Doctor, OOOOooooooouuu”

  
  

  “I just can’t take no more of this wrenched pain – help me”

  
  

   

  
  

  The Doctor says she’s got an abscess

  
  

  And it’s leaving my baby in distress

  
  

  Now she gotta search for the right healer

  
  

  ‘Cause she sure don’t want no drug dealer – no siree

  
  

   

  
  

  Chorus

  
  

  She’s got that wisdom tooth feeling

  
  

  I say my baby she needs some healing – bring it home baby

  
  

  She’s got the bad molar blues

  
  

  She’s got some real bad so sad molar blues

  
  

  She’s got the aching tooth blues – yes she does

  
  

  She’s got them real deep down turning’ a frown tooth aching blues – that’s right

  
  

   

  
  

  So she found her self a dentist

  
  

  From way the hell down in Memphis

  
  

  Well, he said he could fix it– oh yes

  
  

  He was sure he could heal her pain – and that’s just what he did

  
  

   

  
  

  Now my baby’s much better

  
  

  Just like the day that I met her

  
  

  And she can smile big and wide

  
  

  ‘Cause there ain’t no more pain inside – her smile

  
  

   

  
  

  Chorus

  
  

  She’s got that wisdom tooth feeling

  
  

  My baby’s done had some healing –that’s right

  
  

  She’s got no more bad molar blues

  
  

  She’s ain’t got no more bad so sad molar blues

  
  

  She don’t have them aching tooth blues – no how

  
  

  She done with them real deep down turning’ a frown tooth aching blues – yeah
