    Lyrics:
    When your body's had enough of me
    And I'm layin' flat out on the floor
    When you think I've loved you all I can
    I'm gonna love you a little bit more
    Come on over here and lay by my side
    I've got to be touchin' you
    Let me rub your tired shoulders
    The way I used to do
    Look into my eyes and give me that smile
    The one that always turns me on
    And let me take your hair down
    'Cause we're stayin' up to greet the sun
    And when your body's had enough of me
    And I'm layin' flat out on the floor
    When you think I've loved you all I can
    I'm gonna love you a little bit more
    Got to say a few things that have been on my mind
    And you know where my mind has been
    I guess I learned my lessons
    And now's the time to begin
    So if you're feelin alright and you're ready for me
    I know that I'm ready for you
    We better get it on now
    'Cause we got a whole life to live through
    And when your body's had enough of me
    And I'm layin' flat on the floor
    When you think I've loved you all I can
    I'm gonna love you a little bit more
    And when your body's had enough of me
    And I'm layin' flat out on the floor

    I used to sing this song to my sweetheart back in the 70s, and on for years and years after we were married. I lost her 2 months ago after a lengthy illness. When she was at her worst times in the hospital, I would crawl up onto the bed beside her and sing this and other old love songs. At first, it was almost like magic, as she would get better and amaze the doctors and nurses. As a physician myself, I have seen many things turn patients around, albeit sometimes only briefly. Music was sometimes the strongest medicine. Regardless, after 8 months, she finally passed away with me holding her hand. I still love the old songs, but while they bring back many good memories, they also refresh my mind with the realization that I won't see her until my time comes. I am going to repeat her last words, I love you baby.

      @@lynneperry9978 Sorry if I made your cry, and I do thank you for your empathy. We were together for 47 years and 15 days including the 5 months and 29 days of dating prior to becoming husband and wife. A whirlwind romance that lasted when others said it wouldn't. People like to say the loss of a loved one gets better with time. It does not. I miss her more and more each and every day.

    One of the regrets about getting older is, as much as you cherished the '70s music back in the day, and after seeing the degradation of things today, listening to these songs again takes you back to a better place where you can cherish them "A Little Bit More".

      @@davinastanton3865 - I've found that the hard part of getting old is seeing friends and loved ones pass on. I truly believe that it's they who keep you going both physically and mentally. Without them, you slow down and find yourself in a more secluded world. I too am 66. Inside, I'm still as energetic as I was 40 years ago. But the batteries aren't as fresh as they once were, and the mechanism works a little slower.

      I saw my last close friend pass in 2013. He was no relation, but he was "family" and always introduced me to his friends as "his son".
      As he was lying on his deathbed, he called and wanted to borrow $75 from me. I gave it to him without hesitation, knowing I'd never get it back (I still tear up when I think about this).
      After he died and was cremated, I drove down to bring his ashes back so they could be spread along the river he once lived next to - and behind the restaurant where we would spend hours on end drinking coffee with friends - all of whom have passed on as well.
      I'm the only one left, and it gets lonely at times.
      I still have family, but most live in other states. I have one brother that I see as often as I can, but that's all.
      Other friends wonder why I don't find someone to hang out with again. I don't think they understand that there are "friends" and there are "friends".
      The current friends I have I don't see every day - they're not that "close" and no matter how I try, I can't get that close to them.
      No one will ever be as close as the friends I loved and miss.

    I remember when Dr Hook came to South Hedland, in the Pilbara, Western Australia, 1984. They played at the oval. I couldn't believe it. They traveled all that way.
    I was 12 years old with my sister who was 24. We had the best time. It's the best memory I have with her before life took us in different directions. She passed from lung cancer at 59.
    Thankyou Dr Hook for that wonderful concert all those years ago. Very special indeed.

      And We need women see us that way, to be loyal, nurturing, loving women. so we can show it. We've been duped into seeing each other as "wrong" but we're part of a whole.
      Come ON! Carrie, carry me one more mile.
      I don't know where its leading too,
      But I KNOW I can make it if I LEAN ON YOU!
      Alone men are broken, lost, obsessive creatures. Our anger is so hot it burns us. -But quench us with love, and we harden like fine steel.

    I play a little guitar and so does my son. One day he said that he could tell the difference between our generations, being that I played a lot of "happy" chords like C, D and G, where he plays rather grungy, angry, power chords. I am so glad I grew up in the Dr. Hook era of "happy" music rather than the rap and seemingly depressing music of today. I wouldn't trade my music for anything that passes for "music" today! Thank you, Ray and Dennis and the multitude of real songwriters from the golden age of rock!

    Oh yeah... When he wants a little bit more, but all a tired gal wants is a little peace...Dr Hook were great fun entertainment. Songs like 'Cover Of The Rolling Stone'. I recently heard a group of charity shop workers singing their own 'cover' versions of that, as they went about their work sorting old junk etc.Such fun music makes the drudgery of work and everyday life less tiresome and boring. Thank you for the music and fun.

    • @AnnemarieMay
      @AnnemarieMay 11 місяців тому

      @gregnormal55. Not intruding. Yes, do like your songs. They resonate with the lives of ordinary real people. The ones who grow society's foid, make things we use, serve us our drinks, cook, clean, haul stuff from A to B on transports etc. Well done. Thank you for the music.

    • @AnnemarieMay
      @AnnemarieMay 11 місяців тому

      @gregnormal55. Oh, they're all good buteven though it is very depressing, the agony of 'Sylvia's Mother Said' is one I regard as a masterpiece in songs about emotional torture.I recall being a teen and a young boy I fancied wanted to talk to me on the phone at a neighbour's house and my mother picked up the call and said to the my lover boy 'My daughter's too busy with having a new dress made to go out with to meet her future husband we have found her and he will take her back home to Europe because he hates it here in Australia, so better you go away'. But he we kept ringing back and the man of the house was getting annoyed. And I wanted to chat with that cute boy I fancied as my real true love husband. Sylvia's Mother was playing on the radio, on and on, just like that persistent young man. The man of the house got really mad, walked in, switched off the radio, glared at my mother then said 'You know what Sylvia's mother really ought to be doing? Just shut the f... up and stop interfering in other's personal, private life. A cold,deathly silence prevailed, as all the various aunties, mothers etc gathered gave each other weird, 'knowing' female looks. I just looked down. I hated the new dress. I hated the husband they had chosen for me. I didn't want to leave my homeland here. I just missed that boy so bad it hurt. 'You like nice new pink dress? Very pretty girl...' One of the ethnic women broke the uncomfortable silence.'Yeah, guess so...' I sighed, bored. ''You smarten up your bad attitude, young lady. You getting married to a refined man, you better smarten up your ideas! ' I was reprimanded, by a stern Anglo Aussie matron. I knew I had to escape from there and these women so like 'Sylvia's mother', who could be any interfering control freaking woman, really...That song is a masterpiece, though not a fun song like the others. I also like Cover Of The Rolling Stone and how it pokes harmless fun at the truth of the big time Rock Stars music industry, taking 'pills to get all kinds of thrills', but there's only one thing they all want that's but they can't have ...Simply be known, loved, admired, have fun doing music in latest style clothes etc for the sheer joy of it all. There was a time when local community fun at dances etc was what rock'n'roll was all about, complete with the wild, hot dudes,'bad girls', sexy chick's, beauty queens, loud music etc. Real fun was had, unlike now. It's so sad. How things have changed.
