I want to jump but I'm afraid I'll fall
I want to holler but the joint's too small
Young man river's got a hold of me too
I've got the rocking pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu
Calls another baby, that ain't all
I want to kiss her but she's way too tall
Young man river's got a hold of me too
I've got the rocking pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu
I want to squeeze her but I'm way too low
I would be running but my feet's too slow
Young man river's got a hold of me too
I've got the rocking pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu
I want to squeeze her but I'm way too low
I would be running but my feet's too slow
Young man river's got a hold of me too
I've got the rocking pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu
Baby's coming now, I'm running home
I know she's leaving because I'm taking too long
Young man river's got a hold of me too
I've got the rocking pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu
