Lyrics

[Intro]

Hey

[Verse 1]

Well, I don't know where they come from

But they sure do come

I hope they're comin' for me

And I don't know how they do it

But they sure do it good

I hope they're doin' it for free

[Chorus]

They give me cat scratch fever

Cat scratch fever

[Verse 2]

Well, the first time that I got it

I was just ten years old

I got it from some kitty next door

Now I went to see the doctor and he gave me the cure

I think I got it some more

[Chorus]

They give me cat scratch fever

Cat scratch fever

I got a bad scratch fever

The cat scratch fever

[Verse 3]

It's nothin' dangerous

I feel no pain

I've got the cha-cha train

You know you got it when you, you're going insane

It makes a grown man cry, cry

Oh, won't you make my bed?

[Verse 4]

Well, I make the pussy purr with the stroke of my hand

They know they gettin' it from me

They know just where to go

When they need their lovin' man

They know I'm doin' it for free

[Chorus]

I give them cat scratch fever

Cat scratch fever

They got a bad scratch fever

A cat scratch fever

[Outro]
