Fever (demo) Songtext
von Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes

When I get home from my job, I turn on my TV
But I can′t keep my mind on the show
When I lay down at night, oh, I can't get no sleep
So I turn on my radio
But the only sound I hear is you whispering in my ear
The words that you used to say
Now my days grow longer as my love grows stronger
And the fever gets worse and

I′ve got the fever for a girl
(Got the fever, oh, I got the fever) whoa
There ain't nothing that a poor boy can do
When he's got the fever for a girl
(Got the fever, oh, I got the fever) whoa
Yeah, you left this little boy


I can remember, coming home
I see you standing at the stove
With the dishes on the table
Dinner ready to go
Or maybe on out to a movie show
Something that you′d like to see
Oh baby, you′re my sun in the morning, and my moon at night
Think about you, baby, mm, I feel alright
Days grow longer as my love grows strong
The fever gets worse and

I've got the fever for a girl
(Got the fever, oh, I got the fever) whoa
There ain′t nothing that a poor boy can do
When he's got the fever for a girl
(Got the fever, oh, I got the fever) whoa
Yeah, you left this little boy blue

(Ooh, gonna be alright)
(Ooh, gonna be alright) well baby, yeah
(Ooh, gonna be alright) yeah

I can remember, coming home
I see you standing at the stove
With the dishes on the table
Dinner ready to go
Or maybe on out to a movie show
Something that you′d like to see
Oh baby, you're my sun in the morning, and my moon at night
I think about you, baby, mm, I feel alright
Days grow longer, love grows stronger
And the fever gets worse and


I′ve got the fever for a girl
(Got the fever, oh, I got the fever) whoa
There ain't nothing, there ain't nothing I can do
When he′s got the fever for a girl
(Got the fever, oh, I got the fever) whoa
Left this little boy blue, well

Sure left this little boy blue
There ain′t nothing I can do (ooh, gonna be alright)
Oh, I've got the fever, baby (ooh, gonna be alright)
Baby, please come home (ooh, gonna be alright)
I don′t wanna be alone (ooh, gonna be alright)
I got the fever for you, girl (ooh, gonna be alright)

(Ooh, gonna be alright) oh, baby, oh
(Ooh, gonna be alright) ooh yeah, I got the fever for you, baby
(Ooh, gonna be alright) baby I, baby I, baby I
(Ooh, gonna be alright) I, I got the fever, got the
(Ooh, gonna be alright) I got the, I got the fever for you, baby
(Ooh, gonna be alright) oh yeah-yeah, can't spend my life in that no more
(Ooh, gonna be alright) got the, got the, got the...
