lyrics

Little Billy Got The Fever

Little Billy got to thinking ‘bout the world he knew
Why were we treating other people like scum?
He felt it burning deep inside him and he had to act
He had to find a way to over come

Some people didn’t like the things that Billy came and said
They didn’t like the things he started to do
He said ‘Boys you can choose to look the other way
But you can’t say that you never knew’

He got the fever, he got the fever
He got the fever, burning in his soul

Little Billy got to thinking he was made for this,
Inconceivable that he would get bored,
To fight against the system that denies that every man
And every woman is a child of the Lord

He went and did his best and it was good enough
To set a generation free
He said ‘I’m way too young to think that it’s impossible,
So how you gonna stop a cat like me’

Reconciled & Into The Woods (Remastered)
by The Call

supported by 5 fans who also own “Little Billy Got The Fever”

There is no argument that these 2 releases were The Call at their best. The reissues sound great but are not technically remastered. Without getting too audio snobby, let's call them sonically enhanced by increasing the output levels. Where this package misses is the lack of liner notes and extra tracks (or demos) that likely exist and wouldn't have impacted the final price or disc space to include them. oldkidd
