Feelin' Better

Moved on down
 To sweet home Alabama in 1974
 Had to get out of Music City
 And I had to get off the road
 Woman, she left and the people
 Wouldn't let me sing nothin' but them old
 Sad songs, had to get high so I wouldn't cry
 You know they hit pretty close to home
 I'm feelin' better
 Now that I'm back on the road
 Getting it together
 Between Macon and Muscle Shoals
 I started turnin' up loud and looking at the crowd
 And bendin' them guitar strings
 Knew all the while, though it was my style
 Could they ever forget my name
 Rocked 'ed in Raleigh, knocked 'em outta Nashville
 Just couldn't do no wrong
 People went wild and the band said
 "Child, better keep on playin' your songs"
 I'm feelin' better
 Now that I'm back on the road
 Getting it together
 Between Macon and Muscle Shoals
 Well, my life ain't the same and I had to change
 And I hope this music will show
 A little bit less of cryin' in the beer
 And a little of my own soul
 Waylon and Toy and all them boys
 I wanna say thanks to you
 Your fiddle and your steel make me play what I feel
 And I don't feel lovesick blues
 I'm feelin' better
 Now that I'm back on the road
 Getting it together
 Between Macon and Muscle Shoals
 All came together in my sweet Alabama home
 And I'm through forever of tryin' to put everybody on
 And I'm feelin' better
 I got hurt but I'm back on the road
 Getting it together, had to eat a little cornbread
 I've been eatin' that cornbread, sleepin' on a featherbed
 Drinkin' that homegrown
 Writin' some new songs, do it on, get home
 Eat a little cornbread, lovin' on a featherbed
 Smokin' that homegrown, write a few new songs
 This here music's homegrown
