You hold my hand and I can't understand
My nerves, oh my nerves
One look from you and you don't know what you do
To my nerves, oh my nerves
Ooh, my nerves
You hold me tight and kiss me right
My nerves, oh my nerves
I get such a thrill it sends a chill
To my nerves, all my nerves
A-can't you see what you do to me
To have me feel this way?
I pat my feet and I clap my hands
And I snap my fingers all day
Whisper low that you love me so
My nerves, all my nerves
I should be bold when I lose control
Of my nerves, all my nerves
(Instrumental and saxs)
Like the sun shines in the sum-um-um-mer
Like the sun shines in the fall
I'll be there anytime a-you want me
All you gotta do is call
Call my name and you start that-a flame
In my nerves, all my nerves
When you're around, I can't hold 'em down
My nerves, all my nerves
One little squeeze and I just kind-a ease
My nerves, whoa my nerves!
I'm a total wreck, 'cause I just can't check
My nerves
Whoa! My Nerves!

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. ?? Among his most notable successes are "All Around the World", "Fever" (which was later covered by Peggy Lee) and "Let It Rain". John collaborated with several prominent artists, including Ray Charles and Sam Cooke. His music has influenced generations of musicians and continues to be appreciated for its energy and emotional impact. John died prematurely in 1968 at the age of 31.

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
