Did you ever wake up in the morning, nothin' was a-goin' right?
Spent the whole night fussin' and a-fightin' with your wife
Bills out in the mailbox, you know that you can't pay
Then you try to leave for work and your car's been hauled away
What you needed was a real good, feel-good song
One that makes you feel alright when everything goes wrong
One that makes you move your feet and makes you sing along
You need a real good, feel-good song
A friend of mine was a-workin' hard, savin' all his pay
Like Jesse James, the IRS stole most of it away
Then he got chased by a street gang and he finally found a phone
He called up the police and they put him on hold
What he needed was a real good, feel-good song
One that makes you feel alright when everything goes wrong
One that makes you move your feet and makes you sing along
You need a real good, feel-good song
They say music charms a savage beast and I believe it's true
Man's had it down through history when he's had the blues
He'd find a drum to beat on and a horn that he could blow
You know it worked for the children of Israel at the walls of Jericho
They brought the house down with a real good, feel-good song
One that makes you feel alright when everything goes wrong
One that makes you move your feet and makes you sing along
You need a real good, feel-good song
You need a real good, feel-good song
One that makes you feel alright when everything goes wrong
One that makes you move your feet and makes you sing along
You need a real good, feel-good song
You need a real good, feel-good song
