Homesick Fever

Woke up this morning, not feeling too well

The man in my mirror looking mighty pale

On this old CB calling for emergency

But all of a sudden, it's dawning on me

I don't need no doctor

To tell me what's wrong

I've known my problem

I've been gone too long, way too long

Homesick fever running through my vein

Lonely feeling, love hungry pain

You can say your daddy coming down with the blues

Got this homesick fever mama, missing you

That old evening sun, it's going down on my right

Baby, I'm southbound coming home tonight

I'm in the mountain, mama, headed up the hill

The closer I get to you the better I feel

That's just one gift, mama

She don't get my mind

One once of your love honey

And I'll be feeling fine, so fine

Homesick fever running through my vein

Lonely feeling, love hungry pain

You can say your daddy coming down with the blues

Got this homesick fever mama, missing you

Homesick fever, lonely feelin'

Yes, you can say your daddy coming down with the blues

Homesick fever mama, missing you
