Lyrics Old Time Feeling - S.G. Goodman

Oh, and my soul can't afford those city lights
Not with the sickness in the countryside
Not with the wound that we've left open wide
Oh, believer, you be the healer
Can't hear the peace train with that coal train gunning
To keep the peace you'll keep that coal train running
Or find a way to keep those paychecks coming, ah-ah

Even though they've said
We're not there quite yet
We're not living in that old time feeling
We're not living in it

Oh, and I hear people saying how they want a change
And then the most of them do something strange
They move where everybody feels the same
About the southern state behind
The southern state is a condition, it's true
I've got a little proposition for you
Stick around and work your way through
Be the change you hope to find

Even though they've said
We're not there quite yet
We're not living in that old time feeling
We're not living in it
I said no, we're not living in that old time feeling
We're not living in it
I said no, we're not living in that old time feeling
We're not living in it

Living off of gas station delicacies
What they're feeding us
Gas station delicacies

Even though they've said
We're not there quite yet
We're not living in that old time feeling
We're not living in it
I said no, we're not living in that old time feeling
We're not living in it
I said no, we're not living in that old time feeling
We're not living in it

Living off of gas station delicacies
What they're feeding us
Gas station delicacies
What they see in us

I was raised in that old time feeling
Began to shake in that old time feeling
I was saved from that old time feeling
When it quit talking for me
