Chest Fever (The Band cover) Lyrics
I know she's a tracker
Any style that would back her
They say she's a chooser
But I just can't refuse her
She was just there, but then she can't be here no more
And as my mind unwheels
I feel the freeze down in my knees
But just before she leaves, she receives
She's been down in the dunes
And she's dealt with the goons
Now she drinks from a bitter cup
I'm trying to get her to give it up
She was just here, I fear she can't be there no more
And as my mind unwheels
I feel the freeze down in my knees
But just before she leaves, she receives
It's long, long when she's gone
I get weary holding on
Now I'm coldly fading fast
I don't think I'm gonna last very much longer
She's stoned said the Swede,
And the moon calf agreed
But I'm like a viper in shock
With my eyes in the clock
She was just there somewhere and here I am again
And as my mind unweaves
I feel the freeze down in my knees
But just before she leaves, she receives
Any style that would back her
They say she's a chooser
But I just can't refuse her
She was just there, but then she can't be here no more
I feel the freeze down in my knees
But just before she leaves, she receives
And she's dealt with the goons
Now she drinks from a bitter cup
I'm trying to get her to give it up
She was just here, I fear she can't be there no more
I feel the freeze down in my knees
But just before she leaves, she receives
I get weary holding on
Now I'm coldly fading fast
I don't think I'm gonna last very much longer
And the moon calf agreed
But I'm like a viper in shock
With my eyes in the clock
She was just there somewhere and here I am again
I feel the freeze down in my knees
But just before she leaves, she receives

Robbie Robertson wrote that song about a prostitute that injected Methamphetamine. Chest fever in the 60s meant your heart racing after injection Methamphetamine. I know she’s a Tracker. That says it all.
