I'd like to kiss you, but I'm quarantined
I got to keep my lips off the scene
'Cause there ain't no cure for me
I probably ought to lay down and die
I long to hug you and to hold you tight
But I gotta wait fourteen nights
Influenza's got a hold of me
I'd like to kiss you, but I'm quarantined
The doctor told me this morning
Go on and seal yourself away
From the little gal you been lovin'
That's the orders of the day
I'd like to kiss you, but I'm quarantined
I got to keep my lips off the scene
'Cause there ain't no cure for me
I probably ought to lay down and die
I long to hug you and to hold you tight
But I gotta wait fourteen nights
Influenza's got a hold of me
I'd like to kiss you, but I'm quarantined
I'd love to take you out dancin'
Where all the rowdy people go
But I can't take my chances
One little cough could kill us all
I'd like to hug you
I'd like to kiss you, but I'm quarantined
I got to keep my lips off the scene
'Cause there ain't no cure for me
I probably ought to lay down and die
I long to hug you and to hold you tight
But I gotta wait fourteen nights
Influenza's got a hold of me
I'd like to kiss you, but I'm quarantined
Shine, but if it don't make me no difference
What's the disease?
'Cause if I can't find me no lovin'
Let me fall on my knees
And forego all decrees from the CDC
I'd like to kiss you, but I'm quarantined
I got to keep these lips off the scene
'Cause there ain't no cure for me
I probably ought to lay down and die
I long to hug you and to hold you tight
But I gotta wait fourteen nights
Influenza's got a hold of me
I'd like to kiss you, but I'm quarantined
I'd like to love you, but I'm quarantined
I'd like to hug you, but I'm quarantined
I'd like friend you, but I'm quarantined
