Down in Mississippi, I knew an old blind man. This is what he told me, when I tried to lend a hand. I go by feel, yes, I go by feel. The only way I know what's real, People, I go by feel. People always ask me about the blues I play. I say it just comes through me, I don't know no other way. I go by feel, mmm I go by feel. The only way I know what's real, Hey, I go by feel. Sometimes it seems like a mystery, I just close my eyes and it comes to me. There's somethin' I don't even understand.
I just open my heart and it flows right through my hand. Listen to it. When I'm with a woman and I wonder if there's love, All the proof I need is right there in her touch. I go by feel, the only way I know what's real, Hey, I go by feel. I go by feel. People, I go by feel. The only way I know if it's real, Hey, I go by feel. Go by feel, go by feel. Yes. (Go by feel, go by feel.) That's what I'm talkin' about. Oo, go by feel. Oo, go by feel. Oo, go by feel.
