When I hear music country style I jump with jubilation So every day I tune my dial to a country music station I love to hear them pick and sing the songs are so inviting Those country cats can really swing with a beat that's so exciting The other day I felt so good that I could hardly stand it So I went down to Dr Fruite the old head shrinkin' bandit He said there's something goin' around it's so doggone contagious When you get hooked on Nashville sound the habit gets outrageous Yes you've got country music fever country music fever Country music fever's goin' round You're so uptight you could blow your mem'ry Stayin' up nights with ole Ralph Emery Country music fever's goin' round He said I'll cut your bill in half if I don't cure your fever Then he cut out my phonograph and radio receiver He said you'll have to cool it son I'll put you on a diet You gotta cut down on Faron Young or up your farenheit Yes we've got country music fever country music fever Country music fever's goin' round Bought another set for my old lady she digs Chet and I dig Grady Country music fever's goin' round He psychoanalyzed my life and now my troubles startin' I found I've got a sneaky wife who listens to Dean Martin I came home unexpectedly and saw that guilty twinkle And found Dave Dudley's old LP beside her Humperdinkle Yes we've got country music fever country music fever Country music fever's goin round When ole Tex Ritter joins Merle Haggard to help Buck Owens hold that tiger Country music fever's goin' round Country music fever country music fever Country music fever's goin' round Gonna take my records when I die to that great turntable in the sky And keep that country music goin' round (Round round round)
