I Get the Fever

                                  Every time I hear the midnight trains rollin' out to the open plains

A sense of freedom fills my veins I get the fever

Every time I sparrow flies up into the endless skies



Something down inside me cries I get the fever

I get the fever to pack up and leave here wander wild like the wind

This town's too full of mem'ries of cruel love



And I can't stand it seein' her with him

Every time I hear a buddy say he's put lots of dust and clay

Between him and yesterday I get the fever



I get the fever to pack and leave here and I think maybe I'll do just that tomorrow

This town's too full of mem'ries of cruel love

Everywhere I turn there's pain and sorrow



Every time I hear a buddy say he's put lots of dust and clay

Between him and yesterday I get the fever

I get the fever I get the fever I get the fever
