The Fever

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 whisperin' in my ear The words that you used to say Now my days grow longer 'Cause my love grows stronger And the fever gets worse And I've got the fever for this girl Got the fever, oh, I've got the fever Nothing that a po' boy can do When he's got the fever for this girl Got the fever, oh, I've got the fever Left this little boy blue I can remember coming home See you standing at the stove With the dishes on the table Dinner ready to go We'll maybe go out to a movie show Something that you like to see Well now you are my sun in the morning And my moon at night I think about you baby I feel alright Now my days grow longer 'Cause my love grows stronger And the fever gets worse And I've got the fever for this girl
