Lyrics:

I wanna jump but I'm afraid I'll fall
I wanna holler but the joint's too small

Young man rhythm's got a hold of me, too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

Want some lovin', babe, and that ain't all
I wanna kiss her but she's way too tall

Young man rhythm's got a hold of me, too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

Wanna squeeze her but I'm way too low
I would be runnin' but my feets too slow

Young man rhythm's got a hold of me, too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu


I wanna squeeze her but I'm way too low
I would be runnin' but my feets too slow

Young man rhythm got a hold of me, too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

Baby comin', now I'm hurryin' home
I know she's leavin' 'cause I'm takin' too long

Young man rhythm's got a hold of me, too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu

Say it again
My rockin' pneumonia, ooh
Woo
