Lyrics
Doctor, my woman is comin’ back home late todayCould ya maybe give me something?‘Cause the feelin’ is gone and I must get it back right awayBefore she sees that I’ve been
Up, down, tryin’ to get the feelin’ againAll around tryin’ to get the feelin’ againThe one that made me shiver, made my knees start to quiverEvery time she walked in
And I’ve looked high, lowEverywhere I possibly canBut there’s no tryin’ to get the feelin’ againIt seemed to disappear as fast as it came
I read every bookLooked through every meditation and poemJust to bring back home that old sweet sensationBut it ain’t no use to me trying to get that feeling again
Up, down, tryin’ to get the feelin’ againUp, down, tryin’ to get the feelin’ again
Where did it run to? I thought I’d done all that I couldJust to keep the love light burnin’But whatever I’ve done I guess, I just haven’t done it too good‘Cause all that’s left is yearnin’
I’ve been up, down, tryin’ to get the feelin’ againAll around tryin’ to get the feelin’ againThe one that made me shiver, made my knees start to quiverEvery time she walked in
And I’ve looked high and lowAnd everywhere I possibly canBut there’s no tryin’ to get the feelin’ againIt seemed to disappear as fast as it came
And I’ve been lookin’, I’ve been lookin’, I’ve been lookin’I’ve been up, I’ve been down, and tryin’ to get the feelin’I’ve been up, I’ve been down, I’ve been tryin’ to getAnd I’ve tried, and I’ve tried, and I’ve tried to get the feelin’I’ve been trying to get, trying, trying, trying to get the feelin’I’ve tryin’ to get the feelin’ again
I want to get that feelin’I want to get that feelin’I’ve got to get that feelin’I’ve gotta get that feelin’ again and again and againTryin’ to get the feelin’I’ve been tryin’ to get the feelin’ again
