Lyrics

I Feel What I Feel When I Feel It
(by Cheryl Hodge, C. 2009)

Vs. 1 (Well, now)
I feel what I feel when I feel it,
And I ain't gonna make excuses tonight
And when the clock strikes 12 I might feel it
And sock it to most everybody in sight
And when the clock strikes one
And I'm jumpin' the gun
Ain't nobody's bizness but mine
Because I feel what I feel when I feel it,
And I won't keep it bottled up inside.

Vs. 2
Well, now I do what I do when I do it,
And I ain't gonna make adjustments tonight
And if there's somethin' to work, I'll work through it
Because I feel that I got nothin' to hide.
Well now I might have holes in my old pantyhose,
But that's gonna make the dancin' reall fine,
Because I do what I do when I do it,
And now I feel that my time has arrived.

BRIDGE:
Set me free
Let me live
With my own
Dignity
Because I feel what I feel when I feel it
And now there ain't no goin' home for me.

3)Well now I want what I want when I want it
And what I want's exactly just what it seems,
And when the truth comes out it might taunt you,
And I might sneak right into your dreams
'Cuz if I can't have you, I don't know what I'll do, 'cuz sometimes I won't sacrifice.
Because I feel what I feel when I feel it
And now I feel like my time has arrived.
