All the way to New Orleans
When you feel it
Mama, I'm not trying to do no wrong
It's a coming of age, when you feel it you know
Hey Jim Blues, what you said
When you feel it you know
When you feel it you know
I know, I know
She keeps a box in a closet for the maid
That is where
When you feel it
When I had the urge to leave
Beneath in my pocket and I'm craving for some
When I saw her aboard the River Queen
She says now boy I stay up late wondering where you been
I always been stubborn and late to bloom
I was courting my Creole lady
When you feel it you know
Well, mama got to worrying
Her photograph was fading
I left the note on the floor in my room
And I know, I know
It's the life that I chose
And I know, I know
When you feel it
When you feel it you know
When you feel it you know
When you feel it you know
I was longing on a short summer night
It's a coming of age, when you feel it you know
It's a coming of age, when you feel it you know
My burdens are my own
No, you can't live forever the way that you been, oh
When you feel it you know
My reasons are my own
When you feel it you know
When you feel it
When you feel it
When you feel it you know
So I climbed the roof and gave that woman my crew
When you feel it
When you feel it you know
When you feel it
When you feel it you know, yes
But I was soon, my woman is true
Oh, soon you're gonna have to give in
I was following my fall leaves
When you feel it you know, yes
I had to her all I know
When you feel it
When you feel it you know
I went out to find my muse
When you feel it
I had to lay down my love
I had to learn this is the way I get along
When you feel it
When you feel it
My business is my own
When you feel it you know
