(J. M. Cohen / Little Walter Jacobs)

My baby gimme high temperature
My baby gimme high temperature
Yeah... 101 when we... Kiss and dance
102 honey... For a late night romance
103... 4 and 5... It get to hot to stay alive

My baby gimme high temperature
My baby gimme high temperature
When I see her comin'... Down the street
I be the fever giver... High to the beat
103... 4 and 5... It get to hot to stay alive

My baby gimme high temperature
My baby gimme high temperature
97... 98 is just a... False alarm
My temperature 105 when I hold her... In my arms
103... 4 and 5... It get to hot to stay alive
