Feel Good
Rufus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Chorus:]
Don't it feel good to feel
Don't it feel good
Now that you know what's real
Don't it feel good
You see the love in your brother's eyes
You've never seen before
And you're not afraid to cry
Don't it feel good

Don't it feel good to be
Don't it feel good
Now that we all agree
Don't it feel good
Learning to know is what helps us show
We've always been the same
And when the walls come tumbling down
Don't it feel good

Don't hide it, it's there within you
You've found it, if you've ever been you
So take it with you

[Chorus]





Get it, get it, get it on
Get it, get it, get it on
