"Remedies" is the third album released by New Orleans R&B artist Dr. John.

"Gris-Gris" (1968)、"Babylon" (1969)に続いて1970年に発表されたドクター・ジョンの3枚目(ちなみにあの"Gumbo"は72年・5作目)。トム・ダウドがプロデュースしたA面はニューオーリンズ感覚の作品集ですっきり分かりやすく、チャールズ・グリーンがプロデュースしたB面はよくわからない17分の大作・・という感じ。なんでもB面は「アンゴラ刑務所を出所した友人から売りつけられた歌」で、プロデューサーが未完成のテープをドクター・ジョンが入院中に発売してしまった・・・らしいですが、本当ですかね?

"What Comes Around (Goes Around)"

Don't you hang me out on no limb
I don't understand cus I can't swim
Don't space me out on no reef
If I got a pretty bad idea

I don't want no excuses
I want to see some results
Don't try and cut me out
Girl, let me check your pulse

What goes around
Comes around
What goes around
Goes around
What goes around
Comes around
What comes around
Goes around
And the way it goes up,
The way it drops down, down, down

I don't want no alibi
Down the bye?
I don't need no way to tell ya
Your love could be more sharin'

Don't want to hear no excuses
I just want to see some results
Yeah, Annie don't you get in my boat.
Girl, still, I'll check your pulse.

What goes around
Comes around
What goes around
Goes around
What goes around
Comes around
What comes around
Goes around
The way it goes up
The way it drops down, down, down
