Johnny Rivers - Rockin' Pneumonia And The Boogie Woogie Flu

(J. Vincent and H. Smith)
I wanna jump but I'm afraid I'll fall
I wanna holler but the joint's too small
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

Call some other's baby that ain't all
I wanna kiss her but she's way too tall
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

I wanna squeeze her but I'm way too low
I would be runnin' but my feets' too slow
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

[Instrumental Interlude]

I wanna squeeze her but I'm way too low
I would be runnin' but my feets' too slow
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

Baby comin' now I'm hurryin' home
I know she's leavin' cause I'm takin' too long
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu
