Help Me
Dr. Dick Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(R. Sawyer/S. Silverstein)

Help me mama she's touching my heart
And I just can't keep her away
Stop her mama I can't let it start
Mama please make her go away

Stop her mama, she's starting to speak
I'm afraid she might talk me away
Help me mama, I'm getting weak
'Cause I've been through this before and I can't take anymore
Mama please make her go away

Mama, she's getting so close I'm afraid
Mama she's got me feeling that same old way

Help me mama she's touching my heart
And I just can't keep her away
Stop her mama I can't let it start
'Cause I've been through this before and I can't take anymore
Mama please make her go away

Mama, she's getting so close I'm afraid
And Mama she's got me feeling that same old way
Mama, she's getting so close I'm afraid
And Mama she's got me feeling that same, same, same old way

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Dr. Dick's song 'Help Me' seem to be describing a situation where the singer (presumably Dr. Dick) is struggling to resist the advances of a woman who is pursuing him. He pleads with his mother to help him resist her, as he fears that he may succumb to her charms and lose control. The repeated phrase 'Mama please make her go away' highlights the urgent nature of his plea.


The lines 'Stop her mama, she's starting to speak, I'm afraid she might talk me away' suggests that the woman may be using words to convince him to give in to her desires. The singer expresses a feeling of weakness and vulnerability, as he has been in similar situations before and has been unable to resist. The repetition of the line 'And Mama she's got me feeling that same old way' emphasises this sense of powerlessness and the idea that he is trapped in a cycle of succumbing to temptation.


The theme of temptation and the struggle to resist it is a common one in many songs and works of literature. In 'Help Me', the use of the singer's mother as the figure he turns to for help adds an interesting layer to this theme. It suggests that the pull of temptation is so strong that he feels he needs the guidance and protection of a parental figure to resist it.
