Ain't what you want But it's what you gonna get I'm gonna play some rock n' roll The best I can The samba group has been caught by police They did nothing but this cops are mostly racist I know it isn't right I know it isn't real I'm gonna show you how it feels 42 degrees Midnight You better hold tight Yellow Fever Nights Yellow Fever Nights This is a big wild fire It's getting higher oh yeah Yellow Fever Nights The sweat running down your body Matches the fire in your eyes Hold me tight In Yellow Fever Nights This is not Berlin Or Sweet Home Alabama It's a gunfight at broad daylight On Copacabana Despite corruption Filth and lies After the storm The sun always shines If you don't take the chance You gonna regret And maybe get yourself A heart attack Don't lose your hope Don't lose your track Once you've been here You might come back Yellow Fever Nights Yellow Fever Nights This is a big wild fire It's getting higher oh yeah Yellow Fever Nights The sweat running down your body Matches the fire in your eyes Hold me tight In Yellow Fever Nights Oh don't you walk away No matter what they say You know the place is here You can now break free Don't let you mama know You came far abroad To hear rock n' roll Yellow Fever Nights The sweat running down your body Matches the fire in your eyes
