When you walk up to a juke box and you slip a nickel in,
You bet your bottom dollar when that record starts to spin
Youll hear a fiddle and a gittar with a honky tonkin sound
Its hillbilly fever and its speadin all around.
Hillbilly fevers goin round
Good ol mountain musics got me down.
Its got me robbin castles, throwin rice and slippin around.
Hillbilly fevers got me down.
When you git that jumpy feelin and you dont know what is wrong
Dont you worry about bother theres a brand new mountain song
Thats got the whole durn country rockin with that big gavel beat
Its the hillbilly breakdown that shakes you off a your feet.
Hillbilly fevers goin round
Good ol mountain musics got me down.
I spent a Sunday down in Tennessee and heres what I found
Hillbilly fevers goin round.
When that love bug comes around you and you dont know you been stung
And you go and see a doctor and he says poke out your tongue
And he looks into that canyon, tells you brother I got news
Youre the victim of sweet buddy and you got the love sick blues.
Hillbilly fevers goin round
Good ol mountain musics got me down.
Im gonna one foot, two foot sweet foot drag then I hold you down
Hillbilly fevers goin round…
