I wanna jump but I'm afraid I'll fall I wanna holler but the joints too small Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too I got the rocking 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 rocking 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 rocking pneumonia And the boogie woogie flu (Repeat *) Baby comin' now I'm hurryin' home I know she's leaving 'cuz I'm taking too long Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too I got the rocking pneumonia And the boogie woogie flu
