Rockin' Pneumonia and the Boogie Woogie Flu

I want to jump but I'm afraid I'll fall

I want to holler but the joint's too small

Young man rhythm got a hold on me too

I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

I want to kiss baby that ain't all

I want to kiss her but the gal's too small

Young man rhythm got a hold on me too

I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

I want to holler baby don't you know

I would be running but my feet's too slow

Young man rhythm got a hold on me too

I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

I want to scream but that ain't all

My baby loves me lord she's carrying on

Young man rhythm got a hold on me too

I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

I want to jump but I'm afraid I'll fall

I want to holler but the joint's too small

Young man rhythm got a hold on me too

I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

I want to scream baby that ain't all

I want to kiss her but the girl's too tall

Young man rhythm got a hold on me too

I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu
