When ya touch my hand
An' talk sweet talk
I got a knockin' in my knees
And a wobble in my walk
I'm tremblin'
And I'm shakin'
A-when ya take me in your arms
To talk romance
My heart starts doin' the St. Vitas dance
An' I'm pantin'
An' I'm shakin'
Early in the mornin' time
Late in the middle of the night
Whenever this chill comes over me
I wanna hug you with all-a my might, ay-ay
An' I'm sweatin'
An' I'm shakin'
A chill an a fever
So I've been told
Makes your head spin around
An' your feet run cold
I got fever
An' I'm shakin'
Feel like I been run through the mill
I can't move around an' I can't stand still
I'm so jittery
An' I'm shakin'
Samson was a mighty good man
Strongest in his day
Then along came Delilah an' clipped his wig
An' it looks like you took me
The same old way
So, I'm 'noy-vous'
An' I'm shakin'
Well, a storm rocks a ship on a sea
The wind shakes the leaves on a tree
I'm like a nervous wreck
I'm all shook up
And that's what you are doin' to me
'Cause I'm jumpin'
An' I'm shakin'
An' I'm jumpin'
An' I'm shakin'
Sha-aaaa-kin'
Shakin', shakin', shakin'
Shakin', um-mmm-mmm
I'm shakin'
FADES-
Shakin'
Shakin'
I'm shakin'
