[Verse 1]
Every time I hear the midnight trains
Rolling out to the open plains
A sense of freedom fills my veins
I get the fever

[Verse 2]
Every time a sparrow flies
Up into the endless skies
Something down inside me cries
I get the fever

[Chorus]
I get the fever to pack up and leave here
And wander wild like the wind
This town's too full of memories of cruel lovе
And I can’t stand it seeing her with him

[Verse 3]
Every time I hеar a buddy say
He's put lots of dust and clay
Between him and yesterday
I get the fever

[Chorus]
I get the fever to pack and leave here
And I think maybe I'll do just that tomorrow
This town’s too full of memories of cruel love
Everywhere I turn there's pain and sorrow

[Verse 4]
Every time I hear a buddy say
He's put lots of dust and clay
Between him and yesterday
I get the fever

[Outro]
I get the fever
I get the fever
I get the fever
I get the fever
