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 on me too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie fluWant some lovin', baby, that ain't all
I wanna kiss her but she's way too tall
Young man rhythm's got a hold on me too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie fluYoung and then [Incomprehensible] the breeze
Young girls are tougher and tighter they squeeze
But the young girl's hip, head down the hall
I got the rockin' pneumonia, the boogie woogie fluI want lovin', baby, that ain't all
It's the last call for alcohol
Hey now, young man rhythm's got a hold on me too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and boogie woogie flu, alrightI wanna love her but she ain't been home
I know she's leavin' but she's takin' too long
Yeah, young man rhythm's got a hold on me too
Got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie fluHey Lord, it's alright
Hey Lord, it's alright
Upright, you got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie fluI wanna jump but I'm afraid I might fall
I wanna holler but the joint's too small
Young man rhythm's got a hold on me too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie fluI want some lovin', baby, that ain't all
I wanna kiss her but the child's too tall
Young man rhythm's got a hold on me too
Got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu, alright
