Song Lyrics:

Yes, my dear, I must admit that one time I might did
(And if you grow wiser for me experience)
Yes, my dear, I grew wiser in many ways and the thing I learned most
Is don't give a dose to the one you love most

No, don't give a dose to the one you love most
Give her some marmalade; give her some toast
You can give her the willings or give her the blues
But the dose that you give her will get back to you
I once had a lady as sweet as a song; she was my darlin' and she was my dear
But she had a dose and she passed it along
Now she's gone but the dose is still here
So don't give a dose to the one you love most
Giver her some marmalade; give her some toast
You can give her a partridge up in a pear tree
But the dose that you give her might get back to me

If you've got an itchin'
if you've got a drip
don't sit there wishin' for it to go way
'Cause it won't if there's a thing on the tip of your thing or your lip
Run down to the clinic today and say
I won't give a dose (Marcus Tee)
