[Verse 1]

He's got a split finger wrap and his rope's pulled way to tight

He's got a lunatic smile 'cause he's really drawn deep tonight

[Pre-Chorus]

He's got a fever, fever, fever, fever

[Chorus 1]

Grab a hold of anything and hold on tight

It hits you like the venom from a rattle snake bite

We are here 'cause he's not all there tonight

[Verse 2]

He takes one last breath and time turns inside out

Then the gate busts open to the world he dreams about

[Pre-Chorus]

He's got a fever, fever, fever, fever

[Chorus 2]

Stick a rope on anything because he don't care

He'd even take a ride on the electric chair

We are here 'cause he's not all there tonight

[Verse 3]

He says it's really kind of simple, keep your mind in the middle

While your butt spins 'round and 'round

[Verse 4]

Take heed to Sankey's preachin', keep liftin' and reachin'

And riding like there ain't no clowns

[Bridge]

What he loves might kill him, but he's got no choice

He's a different breed, with a voice down deep inside

That's screamin' he was born to ride

[Pre-Chorus]

He's got a fever, fever, fever, fever

[Chorus 3]

Fever makes you crazy 'cause it makes no sense

Like runnin' from your shadow out of self-defense

But he won't run and baby he can't hide

He thinks the odds are even leavin' one hand tied

[Outro]

He gets so tired of hangin' on so tight

I know you think he's crazy, well, I think you're right

We are here 'cause he's not all there that's right
