Artist/Band: Nina Simone
Lyrics for Song: Feeling Good(From The Roar Of The Greasepaint)
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Nina Simone



Birds flying high

You know how I feel

Sun in the sky

You know how I feel

Breeze driftin' on by

You know how I feel



It's a new dawn

It's a new day

It's a new life for me, yeah

It's a new dawn, it's a new day

It's a new life for me

Ooooh



And I'm feeling good



Verse 1:

Fish in the sea

You know how I feel

River runnin' free

You know how I feel

Blossom on the tree

You know how I feel



Refrain 1:

It's a new dawn

It's a new day

It's a new life for me



And I'm feeling good



Verse 2:

Dragonfly out in the sun

You know what I mean, don't you know

Butterflies all having fun

You know what I mean

Sleep in peace when day is done, that's what I mean



Refrain 2:

And this old world

Is a new world

And a bold world for me(yeah, yeah)



Verse 3:

Stars when you shine

You know how I feel

Scent of the pine

You know how I feel

Oh, freedom is mine

And I know how I feel



(repeat refrain 1)



(scatting)



Oh, I'm feeling good!
