Feelin' Better

(专辑： The New South - 1977)

Moved on down to sweet home Alabama in 1974
Had to get out of Music City and I had to get off the road
Woman she left and the people wouldn't let me sing nothing but them old sad songs
Had to get high so I wouldn't cry you know they hit pretty close to home

I'm feeling better now that I'm back on the road
Getting it together between Macon and Muscle Shoals

I started turning up loud and looking at the crowd and bending them guitar strings
Knew all the while though it was my style could they ever forget my name
Rocked 'em in Raleigh knocked 'em out in Knoxville just couldn't do no wrong
People went wild and the band said child better keep on playing your songs

I'm feeling better now that I'm back on the road
Getting it together between Macon and Muscle Shoals

Well my life ain't the same and I had to change and I hope this music will show
A little bit less of crying in the beer and a little of my own soul
Waylon and Toy and all of them boys I wanna say thanks to you
Your fiddle and your steel make me play what I feel and I don't feel Lovesick Blues

I'm feeling better now that I'm back on the road
Getting it together between Macon and Muscle Shoals

All I can do
Together in my sweet Alabama home
And I'm through forever of trying to put everybody on
I'm feeling better I got hurt but I'm back on the road
Getting it together had to eat a little cornbread

Ah I've been eating that cornbread sleeping on the featherbed
Drinking that homegrown writing some new songs
Do it on your own

Eating that cornbread loving in a featherbed
Drinking that homegrown write a few new songs
This here music's homegrown
[ guitar ]
I'm feeling better now that I'm back on the road
Getting it together between Macon and Muscle Shoals
