Dooley Jones Lyrics - Dr. Hook

Dooley Jones was doomed since the day that he was born 

All because his mama was Sadie Jones 

Cruel words upon him ever since he was young 

You ain't got no daddy, boy, you ain't no man's son 

Children heard the facts at home 

Talked them up in school 

Teased him 'til his mind was bent and bruised 

You ain't got no daddy Dooley Jones 

Weight upon his shoulder 

A thorn stuck in his soul 

His body walks and talks 

But his mind has no control 

Dooley Jones, Dooley Jones 

You're no man's son, you're no man's child 

Spring time satisfaction 

This infants heart is wild 

Dooley walks the highways 

Every day for miles 

Babbling to birds flying by 

Babbling to the birds as they fly by 

Somewhere some man hides his eyes 

'Cause Dooley is his child 

Son of season's pleasure 

Forever runnin' wild 

Dooley Jones, Dooley Jones 

You're no man's son, you're no man's child 

Spring time satisfaction 

This infants heart is wild 

Dooley Jones, Dooley Jones 

You're no man's son, you're no man's child 

Spring time satisfaction 

This infants heart is wild 

Forever runnin' wild, oh Dooley 

Forever runnin' wild, spring time satisfaction 

Ever runnin' wild, forever runnin' wild 

Ever runnin' wild, forever runnin' wild
