Feelin’ Alright Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Seems I've got to have a change of scene
Every night, I have the strangest dreams
Imprisoned by the way it could have been
Left here on my own or so it seems
I've got to leave before I start to scream
But someone locked the door and took the key

[Chorus]
You feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good myself
Yes, you feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good myself

[Verse 2]
Well boy, you sure took me for one big ride
And even now I sit and I wonder why
That when I think of you I start myself to cry
I just can't waste my time, I must keep dry
Gotta stop believing in all your lies
'Cause there's too much to do before I die

[Chorus]
Hey, you feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good myself
Oh no, you feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good, little girl
[Verse 3]
Don't get too lost in all I say
Yeah, by the time, you know, I really felt that way
But that was then, and now, you know, it's today
I can’t escape so I guess I’m here to stay
'Til someone comes along and takes my place, yeah
With a different name, oh, and a different face

[Chorus]
Hey, you feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good myself
Oh no, you feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good, little girl

[Outro]
Hey, you feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' that good myself
Oh no, you feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good, little girl

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
