jane archer and the reactionaries - uranium fever lyrics
[verse 1]
i don’t know
what i’ve been told
uranium ore’s worth more than gold
sold my cad’
bought me a jeep
got that bug and i can’t sleep
[chorus]
uranium fever had done and got me down
uranium fever is spreadin’ all around
with a geiger counter in my hand
i’m goin’ out to stake me some gov’ment
uranium fever had done and got me down
[verse 2]
well i had a little talk with the aec
they brought out some maps that looked good to me
one showed me a spot that he said he knowed
so i stradled my jeep and headed down the road
well i reckon i drove about a hundrеd miles
down a bumpy road out through the wild
when all of thе sudden i bounced to a stop
at the foot of a mountain
didn’t have no top
[chorus]
uranium fever had done and got me down
uranium fever is spreadin’ all around
with a geiger counter in my hand
i’m goin’ out to stake me some gov’ment
uranium fever had done and got me down
[verse 3]
well i took my geiger and i started to climb
right up to the top where i thought i’d find
a hunk of rock that would make it cl!ck
just like i’ve read about vernon pick
on the second day i made the top
i’m tellin’ ya boys i was ready to stop
the only cl!ckin’ that i heard that day
was the bones in my back that had gone astray
[chorus]
uranium fever had done and got me down
uranium fever is spreadin’ all around
with a geiger counter in my hand
i’m goin’ out to stake me some gov’ment
uranium fever had done and got me down
[verse 4]
well you pack your things
you head out again
into some unknown spot where n0body’s been
you reach the spot where your fortune lies
you find it’s been staked by seventeen other guys
well i ain’t kiddin’ i ain’t gonna quit
that bug’s done caught me and i’ve been bit
so with a geiger counter and a pick in my hand
i’ll keep right on stakin’ that government land
[chorus]
uranium fever had done and got me down
uranium fever is spreadin’ all around
with a geiger counter in my hand
i’m goin’ out to stake me some gov’ment
uranium fever had done and got me down
