"Feels Good"
Words and Music by Michael B. Hicks
Michael B. Hicks Music, BMI © 2012

Feels good to wake up in the morning and lift my hands
Breath stankin' while I'm yawning, but I woke up again
My teeth ain't perfectly straight but they get the job done
Roots feeling a little thick, hair's nappy but at least I got some

Oh...Oh...
It feels good to be alive...alive

Feels good to hit the switch and know my light bill is paid
My fridge ain't full, but I'll enjoy the sammich I made
Yes, gas is high, but at least I have a car to drive
And I don't really have nowhere to go, so I'll simply enjoy the ride

Oh...Oh...
It feels good to be alive...alive

La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La

Feels good to have some minutes to spare on my cell phone
I'll use my rollover minutes and I'll call home
My mom is well and my dad, I'm glad he is ok
When they get some extra cash, they're gonna head up this way

Oh...Oh...
It feels good to be alive...alive

It feels good
