Feelin Better

Hank Jr.
Moved on down to sweet home alabama in 1974
I had to get out of music city and I had to get off the road
Woman she left and the people wouldnt let me sing nothing but them old sad songs
Had to get high so I wouldnt cry you know they hit pretty close to home
I'm feelin' better

Now that I'm back on the road
Getting it together
Between Macon and Mussel Shoals

I started turinging up loud
and looking at the crowd and bending them gutiar strings
Knew all the while though it was my style
could they ever forget my name
I rocked them in Raleigh and knocked them out of Knoxville
just couldnt do no wrong
People went wild and the band said child better keep on playing them songs

I'm feelin better
Now that I'm back on the road
Gettin it together
Between Macon and Mussels Shoals

Now my life aint the same and I had to change
and I hope this music will show
A little bit less of crying in the beer and little of my own soul
Waylon and Toy and all them boys
I wanna say thanks to you your fiddle and your steele make me play what I feel
and I dont feel love sick blues
and I'm feelin better
I got hurt but I'm back on the road
Gettin it together between Macon and Mussel Shoals

All came together in my sweet alabama home
and I'm through forever of trying to put everybody on
I'm feelin better
Now that I'm back on the road
Getting it together
had to eat little cornbread
Yea been eatin that cornbread
sleeping on a feather bed
drinking that home grown
writing some new songs
Feelin better
