Feelin' Good About Feelin' Bad

(Emory Gordy, Jr./Jim Rushing)
 Being without you, baby, is drivin' me crazy
 But the way we were was drivin' me insane
 The cure for a love-sick ill
 Don't come in a little pill
 I could use a shot of good time in my veins
 Woke up this mornin' with a bad case of Friday night fever
 I need a long-legged hunk of honey to cool my head
 I know a honky-tonk down the street
 To treat a pair of lifeless feet
 With a jukebox loud enough to wake the dead
 Feelin' good about feelin' bad
 These are the best gettin' over you tears I've ever shed
 Gonna get real toe and heel leave you like you're standin' still
 Dance you right outta my head
 Feelin' good about feelin' bad
 Don't ya worry your mind that you're worryin' mine any longer
 If your memory comes a-callin' I won't be home
 Well, it may seem cruel and crude
 But I'm changin' my attitude
 You'll be history in a sea of lost and gone
 Feelin' good about feelin' bad
 These are the best gettin' over you tears I've ever shed
 Gonna get real toe and heel leave you like you're standin' still
 Dance you right outta my head
 Feelin' good about feelin' bad
 Feelin' good about feelin' bad
 Feelin' good about feelin' bad
