Rolling Fever

(album: Dr. Heckle And Mr. Jive - 1979)

I told my mama and daddy I was leaving
Left a young thing all alone and grieving
She said, "As long as there's stars above
We'd love to have you here
But we know you're in love"

With rolling fever, rolling fever
Lady Luck's got a way to make you believe her
She'll take a young boy, give him rolling fever

Stopped at a cafe on the road to eat
The waitress looked like she was easy street
She said, "I'd like to spend some time with you
I can tell by your eyes you got nothing to lose"

You got rolling fever, rolling fever
Lady Luck's got a way to make you believe her
She'll take a young boy, give him rolling fever

I got a job on Friday night
They had me working 'til the morning light
I told the boss, "You can plainly see
There are some people that just got to be free"

They got rolling fever, I got rolling fever
Lady Luck's got a way to make you believe her
She'll take a young boy, give him rolling fever

Rolling fever, you know I got it now, rolling fever
Lady Luck's got a way to make you believe her
She'll take a young boy, give him rolling fever
