Feelin' Good About Feelin' Bad

(Jim Rushing - Emory Gordy)



Being without you baby it's drivin' me crazy

But the way we were was drivin' me insane

The cure for a lovesick ill don't come in a little pill

I'd use a shot of good time in my veins.



Woke up this mornin' with a bad case of Friday night fever

I need a long legged hunk of honey to cool my head

I know a honky tonk down the street to treat a pair of lifeless feet

With a jukebox loud enough to wake the dead.



Feelin' good about feelin' bad

These are the best gettin' over you tears I've ever shed

Gonna get real toe and heel leave you like you're standin' still

Dance you right out of my head, feelin' good about feelin' bad.



--- Instrumental ---



Don't you worry your mind that you're worryin' mine any longer

If your mem'ry comes a callin' I won't be home

Well it may seem cruel and crude but I'm changin' my attitude

You'll be history in a sea of lost and gone.



Feelin' good about feelin' badThese are the best gettin' over you tears I've ever shed

Gonna get real toe and heel leave you like you're standin' still

Dance you right out of my head, feelin' good about feelin' bad.



Feelin' good about feelin' bad, feelin' good about feelin' bad...
