Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just look at me now I'm shouting
Hey, hey, hey
Oh, I feel good, oh, I feel good
It's all because of you, baby
All because of you, woman
But ain't no doubt about it
All because of you, baby
You don't know what it's like (hey hey hey)
You don't know, you don't know
To be happy again to have so many friends
Just when I thought it was the end.
Hey, hey, hey
And it's all because of you, baby
You got me, you got me, you got me
Ah, ah, ah, ah
I remember the day
When I had nothing to say
Just look at me now I'm shouting (hey hey hey)
But ain't no doubt about it.
Ooh, I feel good, oh, I feel good
And it's all because of you, baby
And let me hear you shout it (hey hey hey)
I wanna hear you shout it (hey hey hey)
Shout, shout it shout it (hey hey hey)
Come on, come on shout it (hey hey hey)
I wanna hear you shout it (hey hey hey)
I wanna hear you shout it (hey hey hey)
Come on and hear me shout it, now (hey hey hey)
Shout, shout it shout it (hey hey hey)
Shout, shout it shout it (hey hey hey)
I wanna hear you shout it (hey hey hey)

I can remember the day when I had nothing to say
I recall a time in my life where I was without words
Just look at me now I'm shouting
Now I am lively and expressive
Oh, I feel good, oh, I feel good
I am filled with positive emotions
It's all because of you, baby
You are the reason behind my current state
All because of you, woman
You are the woman who brought out the best in me
But ain't no doubt about it
There is no question or uncertainty
You don't know what it's like (hey hey hey)
You have no idea what it feels like to be in my shoes
To be happy again to have so many friends
To experience joy and companionship once more
Just when I thought it was the end.
At a time when I felt all was lost
You got me, you got me, you got me
You are the one who has captured my heart and attention
And let me hear you shout it (hey hey hey)
I want to hear your expression of joy and happiness
Come on, come on shout it (hey hey hey)
Encouragement for you to express yourself
I wanna hear you shout it (hey hey hey)
I desire to hear your excitement
Come on and hear me shout it, now (hey hey hey)
I want you to hear my enthusiastic expression
Shout, shout it shout it (hey hey hey)
A repetition of the call for celebration and expression
I wanna hear you shout it (hey hey hey)
Continued desire to hear jubilant expression

Brian Johnson just seems to so naturally enjoy singing and performing. In concert it seems like he has so much fun on stage, not just a grind like it is for so many others.
