Compositor: Eddie Cooley / Otis Blackwell
Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear
You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night
Ev'rybody's got the fever
That is something you all know
Fever isn't such a new thing
Fever started long ago
Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
And you know I'm gonna treat you right
You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night
Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said, Julie baby, you're my flame
Thou givest fever when we kisseth
Fever with thy flaming youth
Fever, I'm afire
Fever, yea I burn forsooth
Captain Smith and Pocahontas
Had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said Daddy-o don't you dare
He gives me fever with his kisses
Fever when he holds me tight
Fever, I'm his Missus
Oh daddy, won't you treat him right
Now you've listened to my story
Here's the point that I have made
Boys were born to give fever
Be it Fahrenheit or centigrade
You give fever when you kiss me now
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night
Fever
Oh, you give me fever
Oh, I'm on fire
I said one hundred and four
It's going up now, one hundred and five
Oh, I'm burning
I'm burning a lot
Oh fever
