Feelin' Down Farther

(album: The Doobie Brothers - 1971)

Well, the sun is shining
A new day is here
All the people smiling
And the sky is clear
Not an hour wasted will I share with you
Got to keep loving, mama
No matter what I do
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I got to tell you
Feeling down farther
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther, baby
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther, baby
Feeling farther down

Jesus, hear me
When I sing out loud
The echoes of my gladness
Fall upon the crowd
I don't care for sadness
And I don't need fear
I hope they finally realize
That the feeling is near

Ooh, ooh, ooh
I got to tell you
Feeling down farther
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther, baby
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther, baby
Feelin farther down

Giving and receiving
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
I got to tell you
Feeling down farther
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther, baby
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther, baby
Feelin farther down

Feeling down farther
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther, baby
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther
Feeling farther down
Feeling down farther, baby
Feeling farther down
