How did I not know of these folks until now? Accidentally stumbled across them and decided to listen because of their name. Am I glad I did. Better late than never. Such musicianship.
Close the Door, close the door, don't let the doctor come in Close the door and lock it tight I've got no money for the doctor tonight Three weeks I spent in the hospital It left me with a stack of bills sky high I'll never be able to pay them I know I wish I would have stayed there and died La dee da dee da, la dee da dee dum... Tell me why, please, tell me why We must pay for the things that we need While a doctor gets richer off me each day I barely have the money to eat So I'll never go to the doctor no more No matter how sick I get No doctor will ever get my dough 'Cause I work too damn hard for that La dee da dee da, la dee da dee dum... Oh, the doctor he sticks his needle in He says just to take some blood What he claimed it was not red but green And boys he took all that he could 1st La dee da dee da, la dee da dee dum..
I was listening to this for the first time and wishing I could catch all the lyrics..............then YOU showed up! haha Made me laugh extra after a chuckle over the joyful vibe and sublime musicianship!!!
I know this is not a political forum, but unfortunately Universal Healthcare would eliminate the need for songs like this! In my country (Australia) everyone pays taxes that go into the public Healthcare system, which every citizen has a right to access - rich or poor. The result is a noticeably higher standard of healthcare for everyone at around a third of the average cost per person of Healthcare in the USA. It just makes sense. Hence we sadly have no songs like this!
Not everyone pays tax. Only working people are taxed! Unemployed people don't pay, but are entitled to get 'free' medical care. Paid for by working class!
There is a Consumption Tax here, called G.S.T., which is the biggest tax source for the Government and everyone pays it when they buy something. Income Tax is a minor tax, so yes everyone here pays tax. Secondly, it is cheaper for everyone if everyone has healthcare. More people are available for work, less time is lost through ill health, more people enjoy better lives, average productivity is higher and I guess while many Americans may think it’s okay seeing their fellow countrymen suffering ill health while not being able to afford healthcare, it is not the Australian way to let our people suffer unnecessarily.
Fabulous, Thank you all.

Close the Door, close the door, don't let the doctor come in
Close the door and lock it tight
I've got no money for the doctor tonight
Three weeks I spent in the hospital
It left me with a stack of bills sky high
I'll never be able to pay them I know
I wish I would have stayed there and died
La dee da dee da, la dee da dee dum...
Tell me why, please, tell me why
We must pay for the things that we need
While a doctor gets richer off me each day
I barely have the money to eat
So I'll never go to the doctor no more
No matter how sick I get
No doctor will ever get my dough
'Cause I work too damn hard for that
La dee da dee da, la dee da dee dum...
Oh, the doctor he sticks his needle in
He says just to take some blood
What he claimed it was not red but green
And boys he took all that he could
1st
La dee da dee da, la dee da dee dum..

Anyone knows what kind of pickup Pokey uses here? .. must be inside the guitar, but his guitar is definitely plugged in via an end jack.

🔊😍🕪👍
Is Pokey best binge listened? or doled out in small sips?
Very fine.
Kick ass! Close the door, don't govt healthcare in! Pokey is the best.
Check out Webb Pierce ( the good Lord giveth Uncle Sam taketh away. I believe he did that one in the early 70s, Pokey has done this one too.
That’s not the point. It’s going in debt with the bills. Tax the obscenely rich! And expand Obamacare.
Fuck..2 amazing
How they do that?
