it started with a tickle and a scratch in my throat
then the fever hit and that's all she wrote
It's no use
now they're boarding up my door and I got the quarantine blues
last Saturday night I was out on the town
just me and darlene, we were gettin down
cutting loose
now my baby's out dancing and I got the quarantine blues
my fever's going up to a hundred and one
darlene's going out to have some fun
fever's going up to a hundred and two
and my baby's lacing up her dancing shoes
now my heart is heavy and my mind's a mess
just thinking bout the way she looked in her party dress
it's no use
now darlene's out dancing and I got the quarantine blues
if I could only just shake it with her one more time
I could twirl her around, I could make her mine
but it's no use
surely someone else will catch her while I've got the quarantine blues
my fever's going up to a hundred and three
has my baby moved on and forgotten me
fever's gone up to a hundred and four
and she's spinning around on the dance floor
oh if I could just reach her I'd say gimme a chance
I love the way you move I love the way you dance
it's so true, I want you
I'd tell her baby don't forget me while I've got the quarantine blues
