Do you ever get the feelin' that you got to get away
It's a sympton of the fever all across the U. S. A.
My family doctor told me "son the flu is what you have"
But I know it's island fever and I got it real bad

Hey doc I need a pain reliever
(Oooo I got it bad) I got the island fever
I got it bad I got the island fever
(Oooo I got it bad) I got the island fever

My baby caught it and I'm not quite sure how
(Oooo I got it bad) I got the island fever
She might have got it from her travel brochure now
(Oooo I got it bad)

(Bow bow bow ooo)
Come on baby wouldn't it be nice (Bow bow bow ooo)
If I could take you down to paradise (Bow bow bow ooo)
Sweet little mama gotta get away (Bow bow bow ooo)
Your daddy knows a little hideaway (Bow bow bow ooo)

Hey girl I got some good advice
Drive your dad mad and
Make him take you down to paradise

I've been pickin' up a love vibration
(Oooo I got it bad) I got the island fever
Comin' from a little island nation
(Oooo I got it bad) I got the island fever
For my own self-preservation
(Oooo I got it bad) I got the island fever
Better make a quick reservation
(Oooo I got it bad)

(Bow bow bow ooo)
Come on baby wouldn't it be nice (Bow bow bow ooo)
If I could take you down to paradise (Bow bow bow ooo)
Sweet little mama gotta get away (Bow bow bow ooo)
Your daddy knows a little hideaway (Bow bow bow ooo)
