Lyrics
WHITE LINE FEVER
Words and music by Jeff Jolly
Copyright 1990
I pulled in from California in a ‘65 Chevy
Yeah, super sport, rag top too
327 under the hood, man, she could really move
I got hit in the streets of Brooklyn
From behind
To think I had white line fever trying to get to you
My wheels, they be wandering all over the road
Somehow I pictured things so different
Instead of this sling on my shoulder
And black and blue face to show
Lines were taking the neighborhood
As the snow flies
Those pyramid papers line the bathroom floor
The mouths were moving so fast
I wanted to reach out and grab them
Sayin’ 25, 50, 100- won’t you give me some more
This dude and his wife
Took me to see Willy, Jesse Colter show
To listen to the other side of rock & roll
The show was cool but the two started fighting
And I stepped in to see what I could do
I woke up on an emergency table
Doctor said stay out of family feuds
