Robert Earl Keen, Jr. - Feelin' Good Again

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

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 'em 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

I wanted you to see 'em 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
It feels so good feelin' good again
