When I get home from my job
I turn on my T.V.
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
As my love grows stronger
And the fever gets worse andI got the fever for a girl
I got the fever
Oh, I got the fever
There ain't nothing that a poor boy can do
When he's got the fever for a girl
I got the fever
Oh, I got the fever
Well, you left this little boyI can remember comin' home
I see you standin' at the stove
With the dishes on the table
Dinner ready to go
Or maybe on out to a movie show
Somethin' 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
I feel alright
Days grow longer
As my love grows stronger
And the fever gets worse andI've got the fever for a girl
I got the fever
Oh, I got the fever
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
Yea, you left this little boy blueI can remember comin' home
I see you standin' 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
I feel alright
Days grow longer
Love grows stronger
And the fever gets worse andI've got the fever for a girl
I got the fever
Oh, I got the fever
There ain't nothing, there ain't nothin' I can do
When he's got the fever for a girl
Got the fever
Oh, I got the fever
Left this little boy blue, wellSure left this little boy blue
There ain't nothin' I can do
Oh, I've got the fever, baby
Baby please come home
I don't wanna be alone
I got the fever for you, girl
