She's Got the Lurgy Lyrics

Cruisin' down the highway

Got my best man beside me

We ain't looking for trouble

But we may have had a couple

I pull into the driveway

Pick up my whiskey

We're pounding on the front door

You got room for two more?

We walk into the party

I say hello to everybody

They're all sitting on the floor

Playing games galore

I notice somebody's missing

It's the one I've been kissing

I say; "Hey! Where's Isabel?"

They said; "Oh! She's not well!"

I think she got it from Sally

Who picked it up from Harry's

Best friend who got it from their mum

Who works in a hospital

And got it from a constable

That's tended by a couple of nuns

Spread it all around

All over town

She's got the lurgy, baby

(Hey, hey, hey)

I know nobody wants it

But I can for sure she's got it now

She's got the lurgy, baby

(Hey, hey, hey)

So I stayed for a bit

Became a part of it

All the things they were saying

All the games they were playing

I got home the next day

I still felt okay

I got a call from Bella though

She said "Oh! Did you get the memo?"

I think I got it from Donnie

Who lives with his auntie

Who works at the local bar

With the boss who's cross

At the staff he's lost

At home coming down real hard

I think I spread it all around"

All over town

You've got the lurgy, baby

(Hey, hey, hey)

I know you didn't want it

But I can say for sure you've got it now

You've got the lurgy, baby

(Hey, hey, hey)

(Hey, hey, hey)

Another week's gone by

I feel a bit less fine

I've got a little fever

And you know I can't leave here

So we're all in an infirmary

And I think I've got it terminally

And I do feel a bit down, hey!

But at least we can kiss now

I think I got it from Billy

When he got a little silly

With his friends on a holiday

He gave it to the rest of us

And not even the best of us

Can party in a safe kind of way

And then we spread it all around

All over town

We've got the lurgy, baby

(Hey, hey, hey)

I know nobody wants it

But I can say for sure we've got it now

We've got the lurgy, baby

(Hey, hey, hey)

(Hey, hey, hey)

(Hey, hey, hey)

(Hey, hey, hey)
