Good Company
My doctor told me if my headache gets much worse
The best thing that I can do is get myself a nurse
Let her give me the kiss of life and after that
You watch my headache disappear three seconds flat
And as you know, I don't really want you to go (no, no)
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company
The other morning, I forget now where I'd been
Some fella cornered me, said hey, man what's your scene?
Oh, I told him frankly that I wasn't in a play
And that if I was, I wouldn't give my scene away
And as you know, I don't really want you to go (no, no)
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company, woo
Altogether, everybody turn and touch your toes
When I stop to give the signal
That's when I would like you
That's when I would like you
To go, oh, oh, oh
Woo-woo
Woo-woo
Muhammad Ali, better known as Cassius Clay
Oh, boy, what a boxer he was and still is today
Oh, I had a go myself once thought that I was him
But unlike Muhammad, baby, I could never win
And as you know, I don't really want you to go (no, no)
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good compan-
Much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company, woo
The best thing that I can do is get myself a nurse
Let her give me the kiss of life and after that
You watch my headache disappear three seconds flat
And as you know, I don't really want you to go (no, no)
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company
The other morning, I forget now where I'd been
Some fella cornered me, said hey, man what's your scene?
Oh, I told him frankly that I wasn't in a play
And that if I was, I wouldn't give my scene away
And as you know, I don't really want you to go (no, no)
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company, woo
Altogether, everybody turn and touch your toes
When I stop to give the signal
That's when I would like you
That's when I would like you
To go, oh, oh, oh
Woo-woo
Woo-woo
Muhammad Ali, better known as Cassius Clay
Oh, boy, what a boxer he was and still is today
Oh, I had a go myself once thought that I was him
But unlike Muhammad, baby, I could never win
And as you know, I don't really want you to go (no, no)
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good compan-
Much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company, woo
