Feelin' Good Again lyrics

Song information

Lyrics

Standin' down on main street
Across from mr, blues
In my faded leather jacket
And my weathered brogan shoes
A chill north wind was blowin'
But the spring was comin' on
As I wondered to myself
Just how long I had been gone

So I strolled across old main street
Walked down a flight of stairs
Stepped into the hall
And saw all my friends were there
A neon sign was flashin' "welcome come on in"
It feels so good feelin' good again

Instrumental

My favorite band was playin'
An otis redding song
When they sang the chorus
Everybody sang along
Dan and margarita
Were swayin' side by side
I heard they were divorcin'
But I guess they let it slide
And I wished I had some money with
Which to buy a round

I wished I'd cashed my paycheck
Before I came to town
But I reached into my pocket
Found three twenties and a ten
It feels so good feelin' good again

There was old man perkins
Sittin' on his stool
Watchin' butch and jimmy john
Talkin' loud and playin' pool
The boys from silver city
Were standin' by the fire
Singin' like they thought
They were the tabernacle choir
And I wanted you to see them all
I wished that you were there
I looked across the room
And saw you standin' on the stair
And when I caught your eye
I saw you break into a grin
It feels so good feelin' good again
