Description:

Doctor Robert
The Beatles
Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney; released on "Revolver" album

Notes:

This song was written about a dentist Dr. Robert Freymann who was also a
drug dealer. It's a harder rocking song, and I like the refrains, because
they almost sound like a Christmas song :-)
