Got A Feeling
Tim Hicks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a bullfrog sitting on a log
Watching them flies like a bone to a dog
Hey yup the sun done coming up
Bait, pole and a coffee cup
It's alright if the fish don't bite
I can sit here all day all night, come on
Ain't nothing no, ain't nothing no
Ain't nothing gonna bring me down

'Cause I got a feeling and it sure feels good
I got a feeling and it sure feels good

I'm a stray cat waiting out back
Somebody tell me where the party's at
Hey now the sun done going down
Time to wake up this sleepy town
It's shine time gimmie that high
Pass me some of that apple pie come on
Ain't nothing no, ain't nothing no
Ain't nothing gonna bring me down

'Cause I got a feeling and it sure feels good
I got a feeling and it sure feels good

Don't it y'all, I got a feeling

I got a feeling, I'm ready to roll
How bout a little back road dosie doe yeah I'm good to go
I got a feeling I wanna spread it around
Spread a little love ride that buzz ain't nothing gonna bring me down, yea, yea

Tell me tell me, are you, are you feeling it too
It's gonna be a good night, yeah it's gonna be a good night

So tell me tell me, are you, are you feeling it too
It's gonna be a good night, yeah it's gonna be a good night

Tell me tell me, are you, are you feeling it too
It's gonna be a good night, yeah it's gonna be a good night

Tell me tell me, are you, are you feeling it too
It's gonna be a good night, yeah it's gonna be a good night





I got a feeling and it sure feels good
I got a feeling and it sure feels good

Overall Meaning

In Tim Hicks's song "Got a Feeling," the artist paints a picture of someone who is content in their current setting, without the need to search for something better or be affected by negativity. The reference to being a "bullfrog sitting on a log" and watching "them flies like a bone to a dog" seems to indicate a sense of leisure and peace. The repetition of "ain't nothing gonna bring me down" reinforces the idea that nothing can disrupt this tranquility, since the central character is already feeling good.


The lyrics then shift to someone who is like a "stray cat waiting out back," presumably looking for a good time. The description of the sunset and the need to "wake up this sleepy town" sets the scene for a fun evening. The character is ready to forget about the worries of the day, get "that high," and enjoy "some of that apple pie." They are again confident, stating that "ain't nothing gonna bring me down."


The last part of the song reveals the desire to share this feeling of happiness and positivity with others. The character suggests a "little back road dosie doe" and hopes to "spread a little love" and "ride that buzz." The repetition of "tell me, tell me" suggests that the central character wants others to join in on this good feeling. The song concludes with the repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the importance of the feeling that the character is experiencing.
