From the recording TOO
In Life, there are invariably and inevitably a few bumps in the road... and, ya know, maybe sometimes it what yer doin' to yerself and carryin' on and such that leads to somewhat less than excellent outcomes. So, back in the day, after some challenging circumstances, I used to sit on the front porch and play and sing with my sunburst Takamine F-340SD 'lawsuit' guitar... on balmy summer days with a light breeze in the trees... and those so-green maples that lined my street, their leaves seemed to sing along... and the girl that I loved, down the street, well she made me feel alright... and things just took a better direction from there i reckon.
Lyrics
Alright
Went out to the Club the other night
Havin’ a good time
Some guys got into a fight
I saw one break a glass
And I yelled Hey, that’s enough
Next thing I knew, those guys
Were jacking me up
Oh, No! BUT, now, I’m
Sitting on the front porch, playing a song
The leaves in the trees are singing along
Thinking about you on a Saturday night
And getting together, and feeling
Feeling alright
I’m feeling alright
Well, I just about got out
the place with my life
Jumped into my car
And I exit stage right
Ran out of gas
Pulled over and got a flat
Next thing I know,
Got a ticket for that
Oh, no! BUT, now, I’m
Sitting on the front porch, playing a song
The leaves in the trees are singing along
Thinking about you on a Saturday night
And getting together, and feeling
Feeling alright
I’m feeling alright
Alright
And, now, I’m
Sitting on the front porch, playing a song
The leaves in the trees are singing along
Thinking about you on a Saturday night
And getting together, and feeling
I’m feeling alright!
I’m feeling alright!
Well, I don’t know why sometimes
I’ve got this crazy life
Just a slippery slope
And the next thing, things ain’t right
But, since I met you, things have come around
Feeling alright with you, baby
Kind of calmed me down
Yeah, right
Now, I’m sitting on the front porch, playing a song
The leaves in the trees are singing along
Thinking about you on a Saturday night
And getting together, and feeling
Feeling alright
I’m feeling alright
Woo Hoo Hoo
Woo Hoo Hoo
Woo Hoo Hoo
Woo Hoo Haa
Yeah, yeah, yeah
C’mon now
I’m feeling alright
I’m feelin all
Feeling alright
