Some folks need to find a name to call it
Then they decide if they like it or not
Like lookin′ at the letter on the faucet tap
Before they can tell if the water's hot

But music is more than the expert′s description
Don't care if it's French, Hawaiian or Egyptian
If I feel it - that′s good enough for me

You can brand it blues, ragtime or hokum
Call it what you want, I don′t mind
I just love to pick it, two fingers an' a thumb
Soothes my soul, helps me unwind

′Cos music is more than the words used to pitch it
I don't see the point wastin′ time tryin' to niche it
If I feel it - that′s good enough for me

You don't need to know who pioneered it
To start your toes to tappin' ′tween the beats
Some prob′ly booed - most cheered it
When it wiggled their hips, jiggled their feet

'Cos music is more than a style or a fashion
It′s all about the swing, the soul an' the passion
If I feel it - that′s good enough for me

Some folks take offence 'bout a different chord
Start callin′ you names puttin' you down
Don't make no sense - it′s a free world
Just another note, a new sound

′Cos music is more than rules or tradition
I'll play what I want, don′t need no permission
If I feel it - that's good enough for me - I mean
If I feel it - that′s good enough for me
