A Really Good Feeling

sung by Big Bird


The first version is transcribed straight from a long-lost .wav file. Due to the age of the record used to make the recording, some of the words were a bit tricky. I've left the second transcription, Robert's, as is, maybe it was used on the show.

When you want to hug somebody
Because they make you feel good
When you find that somebody
Lifts you up and makes you feel good
When you really mean "I'm sorry"
When you hurt somebody's feelings
Then you know that love's a feeling
That's a really good feeling to have

Love is what you feel
When you feel you want to sing
Love is what you feel
About your most favorite thing
Love is a feeling
Everybody likes to feel
Yes love is a very good feeling to have

When you want to touch somebody
Because they make you feel good
When you feel pride in somebody
Cheers you up and makes you feel good
One thing will make you happy
And you want to share the feeling
Then you know that it's a feeling
That's a really good feeling to have

Love is what you feel
When you feel you want to sing
Love is what you feel
About your most favorite thing
Love is a feeling
Everybody likes to feel
Yes love is a really good feeling to have
Yes love is a really good feeling to have
A really good feeling to have!
