Sometimes I just wake up hummin
Feelin like this world is right
Want to jump right up and take a walk outside
and take in the morning light
Feel the music running through me.
Makes me want to dance
Clap my hands and dance

Sometimes it just takes my lady
To smile and make my day complete
And when shes touching me
I feel free and easy to be me
Lucky to be alive – Feelin alright
Take a walk outside – Feelin alright

People they tell me
I m living to fast
Slow down now, Jerry, boy
Let some of life pass
But I dont know no other way
Got to live it day to day
But if I die before my time
When I leave Im leaving nothing behind
Oh no, its just another single grape on the vine

chorus:
Cause Ive got a feeling
Something that I cant explain
Like dancing naked
In that high hill country rain

I aint worried bout tomorrow
Ill get by the best I can
Lovin is my will to live
It makes me laugh, want to sing and dance
Clap your hands, take a chance, come on and dance
Do do do do – do do do do (repeat 3xs)
Do do do do – do do do do

Repeat chorus twice

Words & Music by Jerry Jeff Walker From Jerry Jeff walker’s

Verse 1:
Well if you’re ever in Austin Texas
A little run down on your sole
I’m gonna tell you the name of an old man to see
I’m gonna tell you right where to go
He’s working in Capitol Saddlery
He’s sewing in the back of the place
His name is Charlie Dunn the little frail one
With the smile and the leathery face

Chorus:
Charlie Dunn, he’s the one to see
Charlie done the boots that are on my feet
It makes Charlie real pleased to see me walkin in these
Charlie Dunn, he’s the one to see

Verse 2:
Charlie’s been makin boots over there
He says about fifty some odd years
And once you wear a pair of his hand-mades
Boy, you’ll never wear no store-bought pair
Charlie can tell what’s wrong with your feet
Just by feelin’ ‘em with his hands
And he can take a look at the boots you wear
And know a whole lot about you, man

Repeat chorus:

Bridge:

And ol’ Buck’s up front he’s countin’ up his gold
Charlie’s in the back patchin’ up the soles
All the people comin’ in smilin’ at him
They all wonder how’s ol’ Charlie been
Buck’s makin’ change but he never ever sees no one
And he never understood a good thing ol’ Charlie done

Instrumental

Verse 3:
Charlie’s never had his name on a sign
He don’t put a mark in the boot
He just hopes you can remember him
‘Bout the same way that he does you
He keeps your measurements in a little book
So you can order more boots later on
Well I’m writin’ down ol’ Charlie’s size
I’m a makin’ him up a song

Repeat chorus:

Buck’s up front but he never ever sees no one
And he never understood a good thing ol’ Charlie done
