Joe Ely - River Fever lyrics

With some silver tongued bull rider from La Grange Later that night weren't you down at the Continental Swinging from the chandeliers and actin' strange Baby you got it bad Like everyone I know Baby you've got it bad And you don't want to let it go I got a line on you, you got the river fever Like a bumblebee buzzin' round a honey comb I got a line on you, you got the river fever Too late to skate too early to head for home You sure looked fine in the beer sign light, baby Scootin' your boots up and down the Broken Spoke You shined on me like moonlight on a river I wanted to talk but the words stuck in my throat Oh baby you got it bad Like everyone I know Baby you've got it bad And you don't want to let it go I got a line on you, you got the river fever Like a bumblebee buzzin' round a honey comb I got a line on you, you got the river fever Too late to skate too early to head for home Don't they say that nightlife makes you crazy The same ones that say that s** will make you blind Don't they see the good times make you lazy When the music plays, the moon will blow your mind Baby you got it bad Like everyone I know Baby you've got it bad And you don't want to let it go I got a line on you, you got the river fever Like a bumblebee buzzin' round a honey comb I got a line on you, you got the river fever Too late to skate too early to head for home
