Wanda Jackson - Nervous Breakdown lyrics

rate me

(Eddie Cochran)

I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown

A mental shakedown

I see my hands how they shiver

See my knees how they quiver

My whole body's in a jitter

I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown

Well, I went to see my doctor just the other day

And I'm got to tell you what the man had to say

Well, he said, "Hey boy, you just gotta slow down

You can't keep a traipsin' all over town

After givin' you a physical check

I've come to the conclusion you're a total wreck"

I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown

A mental shakedown

I see my hands how they shiver

See my knees how they quiver

My whole body's in a jitter

I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown

I've made up my mind, I'd better change my ways

My shattered nerves have seen better days

Well, no more girls for a week or two

No more runnin' 'round with the usual crew

No more movies or stayin' out late

My baby, have to find herself another date

I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown

A mental shakedown

I see my hands how they shiver

See my knees, how they quiver

My whole body's in a jitter

I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown
