Intro: Instrumental & sax
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'

Little Willie John, stage name of William Edward John (1937-1968), was an American singer and songwriter of rhythm and blues. Born in Montgomery, Alabama, John began his musical career in the 1950s, quickly becoming a key figure in the R and B scene thanks to his powerful voice and theatrical style. ??

John collaborated with several prominent artists, including Ray Charles and Sam Cooke.

Do we want to define "I know you know me" a masterpiece? Yes, without a shadow of a doubt for at least two reasons. The first and most evident are the artists who interpret it: Caroline Spence and Matt Berninger, second for the deep and poetic text.
My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
