FEELIN' DOWN FARTHER
(Words and Music by Tom Johnston)
The Doobie Brothers


Well, the sun is shinin'. A new day is here. 
All the people smilin', and the sky is clear. 
Not an hour wasted will I share with you. 
Got to keep lovin', mama, no matter what I do. 

Ooh, ooh, ooh, I got to tell you 

Feelin' down farther. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther, baby. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther, baby. Feelin' farther down. 

Jesus, here me when I sing out loud. 
The echoes of my gladness fall upon the ground. 
I don't care for sadness, and I don't need fear. 
I hope they fin'lly realize that the feelin' is near. 

Ooh, ooh, ooh, I got to tell you 

Feelin' down farther. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther, baby. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther, baby. Feelin' farther down. 

Ooh, way down low, ooh, way down low, 
Ooh, way down low, ooh, way down low. 

Feelin' down farther. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther, baby. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther, baby. Feelin' farther down. 

Givin' and receivin' are all I know. 
Some of you will find it and you'll prob'bly let it show. 
Only one thing that I know to be true: 
Every day is different, mama and so are you. 

Ooh, ooh, ooh, 
Ooh, ooh, ooh, 
Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh 

Feelin' down farther. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther, baby. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther, baby. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther, baby. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther, baby. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther. Feelin' farther down. 
Feelin' down farther, baby. Feelin' farther down.
