My sister says
I'm going out of my head
Jade, she tells me
She's playing games with ya, kid
My best friends tell me
I'm gonna wind up dead
But I'm the only one
Who really understands

That I'm lovesick for you
And there's nothing anybody can do
Ya I'm lovesick for you
It's like an old crush we used to have in school
When the teacher'd call the nurse on the intercom
We've gotta dizzy boy here with love goggles on
And now I can only see straight when I'm with you
I'm with you

My momma says
I gotta hold up my chin
My puppy tells me
I could use a friend
My uncle tells me
To join a rock-n-roll band
And write a little song
Break some hearts
And learn to be a man

But I'm lovesick for you
And there's nothing anybody can do
Ya I'm lovesick for you
And I'm running down a fever of a hundred and two
Well I will be here waiting
Calling everyone even the operator
I ain't got the flu
I'm just lovesick for you
