IF IT FEELS GOOD DO IT
(Jerry Chesnut)

Dave Dudley - 1972



 
Some folks call me a laughin' boy
Some say I'm a clown
But till you've tried my way of life
Don't ever put it down

And if it feels good, do it
If it hurts, just let it lie
Now there's no myst'ry to it
Just a better way to look at life

Some folks worry 'bout growin' old
But that don't bother me
Old age is one thing I hope that I
Live long enough to see

Forget your disappointments
Pretend they wasn't there
But when they pass out happiness
Be sure you get your share

And if it feels good, do it
If it hurts, just let it lie
Now there's no myst'ry to it
Just a better way to look at life

(Instrumental Break)

One day when I'm old and grey
Lookin' back on what I've done
I can face the world and say
That livin' sure was fun

And if it feels good, do it
If it hurts, just let it lie
Now there's no myst'ry to it
If it feels good, do it

If it feels good, do it
If it hurts, just let it lie
Now there's no myst'ry to it
If it feels good........FADE
