The Fever lyrics
by Garth Brooks



He's got a split finger wrap andhis rope's pulled way too tighthe's got a lunatic smile'cause he's really drawn deep tonight'course'He's got a fever,fever,fever,fevergrab a hold of anything and hold on tightit hits you like the venom from a rattlesnake bitewe're all here 'cause he's not all there tonightHe takes one last breathand time turns inside out then the gate busts opento the world he dreams about'course'He's got a fever,fever,fever,feverstick a rope on anything 'cause he don't carehe'd even take a ride in an electric chairwe're all here 'cause he's not all there tonightHe says it's really kinda simplekeep your mind in the middlewhile your butt spins 'round and 'roundtake heed to sankey's preachin'keep liftin' and reachin'and ridin' like there ain't no clownsWhat he loves might kill himbut he's got no choicehe's a different breedwith a voice down deep insidethat's screamin' he was born to ride'course'He's got a fever,fever,fever,feverfever makes you crazy 'cause it makes no senselike runnin' from your shadow out of self-defencebut he won't run and baby he can't hidehe thinks the odds are even leavin' one hand tiedhe gets so tired of hangin' on so tightI know you think he's crazy well i think you're rightwe're all here 'cause he's not all there that's right
