I wanna jump but I'm afraid I'll fall

I wanna holler but the joint's too small

G

Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too

          C                                       G7

I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

Verse 2:

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 rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

Verse 3:

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 rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

(repeat opening instrumental)

(repeat verse 3)

Verse 4:

Baby comin' now I'm hurryin' home

I know she's leavin' cause I'm takin' too long

Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too

I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

(repeat opening instrumental and fade)
