FEELING HAPPY
(Turner)
JOE TURNER & HIS BLUES KINGS (ATLANTIC 1122, 1957)

Oh well oh well, I feel so fine today
Oh well oh well, I feel so fine today
Got a letter from my baby
This time she's coming home to stay
She's a tall skinny mama, she weighs about 90 pounds
She's a tall skinny mama, she weighs about 90 pounds
Can't see you no more, that little girl comes around

Well, do you wanna jump children
Do you wanna jump children
Do you wanna jump children
Do you wanna jump children
Now we got jumping children
Jump, jump, jump, brrrr
(Go Joe!)

I said well well (well well)
My my (my my)
Oh oh (oh oh)
Well well (well well)
My my (my my)
Let the good times roll
Let the good times fly

She got great big eyes, really on the ball
She got great big eyes, really on the ball
She's a real fine baby, she comes to my beck and call
She's yours, she's mine, somebodey else's too
She's yours, she's mine, somebodey else's too
Well, you better look out have her clean away from you
Who-hoo

From the movie "Shake Rattle & Rock!" (1956)
(Big Joe Turner with Choker Campbell & His Band)
