[audio] I'm back on my feet again!
I don't think The Babys had my foot and Achilles tendon in mind when they wrote this tune, but if you imagine my heel instead of whatever lover they were writing about, I think it kinda works.
Back On My Feet Again
The Babys, 1980
(J. Waite, Bugatti, Musker)
I was so lonely until I met you
Told myself I'd get by without love
Drownin' my sorrows
Avoiding tomorrows
Kind of felt that I just had enough
You light up my face with your jokes and your smiles
And the way that you came here tonight
Don't know what you got
But I'm sure glad I found you
Could be wrong but it sure feels right
And here I am
I'm back on my feet again
Here I am
I'm back on my feet again
Surprised at myself
for the way that I feel
So happy that you're
here with me
Some women I've known
They've left me with nothing
But I guess that was just meant to be
And here I am
I'm back on my feet again
Here I am
I'm back on my feet again
I was down for the count
I was down
I was beat
I was cryin'
I was cornered and hurt
I was hidin' my face
Sittin' there cryin'
I was so lonely until I met you
Told myself I'd get by without love
Drownin' my sorrows
Avoiding tomorrows
Kind of felt that I just had enough
And here I am
I'm back on my feet again
Here I am
I'm back on my feet again.
Yes here I am
I'm back on my feet again
Here I am
I'm back on my feet again
