Billy Preston

I've got a feeling, a feeling deep inside
Oh yeah, oh yeah
I've got a feeling, a feeling I can't hide
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Yeah, I've got a feeling

Oh please believe me, I'd hate to miss the train
Oh yeah, oh yeah
And if you leave me I won't be late again
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Yeah, I've got a feeling, yeah

All these years I've been wandering around
Wondering how come nobody told me
All that I was looking for was somebody
Who looked like you

Ev'rybody had a hard year
Ev'rybody had a good time
Ev'rybody had a wet dream
Ev'rybody saw the sunshine
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Ev'rybody had a good year
Ev'rybody let their hair down
Ev'rybody pulled their socks up
Ev'rybody put their foot down
Oh yeah, oh yeah
