I Get the Fever

Every time I hear the midnight trains Rollin' out to the open plains A sense of freedom fills my veins I get the fever Every time a sparrow flies Up into the endless skies Something down inside me cries I get the fever I get the fever to pack up and leave here And wander wild like the wind This town's too full of mem'ries of cruel love And I can't stand it seein' her with him Every time I hear a buddy say He's put lots of dust and clay Between him and yesterday I get the fever I get the fever to pack and leave here And I think maybe I'll do just that tomorrow This town's too full of mem'ries of cruel love Everywhere I turn, there's pain and sorrow Every time I hear a buddy say He's put lots of dust and clay Between him and yesterday I get the fever I get the fever I get the fever
