Country Music Fever

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)
