I'm always longing to be a physician
And to serve my community (repeat)
I took my studies from a gentleman
A professor of the human physiology
It was surprising to my professor
The way I got along so rapidly
He said the day you get a diploma
Your name will be Doctor Bombodee (repeat)
Oh Doctor Bombodee, Bombodee
Oh Doctor Bombodee serve your community (repeat)
One day I found an old sound and trumpet
For examination
I get a big knife in my pocket in case
To perform an operation
And ah bawling, Doctor Bombodee, Doctor Bombodee,
Oh Doctor Bombodee serve your community
A lady she brought her daughter to me
First of all she wanted to know my name
I said I'm Doctor Bombodee
A man of knowledge and a lot of fame
And she bawling Oh Doctor Bombodee...
Lady your daughter is unfed
She said mister you talking foolishness
I said she's number among the dead
But she got a cerebral thrombosis
Oh Doctor Bombodee...
I wanted to make an operation
But the lady was bawling uke a geese
I got the big knife into me hands
And she send and shout for the police
Oh Doctor Bombodee...
The patient was lying on the floor
Seeing me with a big knife into me hand
The woman was making a big uproar
When I looked I saw a policeman
The woman she grabs me around my waist
Take away the big knife out of my hands
And she punch me into me face
And push me head in to the garbage can
Oh Doctor Bombodee...
And ah bawling
Your're going to spend your days in penitentiary
