Temperature

(Little Walter Jacobs)

My baby give me a high temperature

My baby give me a high temperature

One hundred and one when we... kiss and dance

One hundred and two for a... night romance

One hundred and three... four and five... it gets to warm to stay alive

My baby give me a high temperature

My baby give me a high temperature

When I see my baby comin'... down the street

I feel a fever get to... high to beat

One hundred and three... four and five... and it gets to warm to stay alive

My baby give me a high temperature

My baby give me a high temperature

Ninety seven... ninety eight is just a... false alarm

My temperature's a hundred and five. when I hold her in my arms

One hundred and three... four and five... and it gets to warm to stay alive
