Lyrics

That Feel

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well there's one thing you can't lose

It's that feel

Your pants, your shirt, your shoes

But not that feel

You can throw it out in the rain

You can whip it like a dog

You can chop it down like an old dead tree

You can always see it

When you're coming into town

Once you hang it on the wall

You can never take it down

But there's one thing you can't lose

ANd it's that feel

You can pawn your watch and chain

But not that feel

It always comes and finds you

It will always hear yo ucry

I cross my wooden leg

And I swear on my glass eye

Itt will never leave you high and dry

Never leave you loose

It's harder to get rid of than tattoos

But there's one thing you can't do

Is lose that feel

You can throw it off a bridge

You can lose it in the fire

Yo ucan leave it at the altar

But it will make you out a liar

You can fall down in the street

You can leaveit in the lurch

Well you say that it's gospel

But I know that it's only church

And there's one thing you can't lose

And it's that feel

It's that feel
