This Week's "Song That's Stuck In My Head"

Everyone has a song that every time they hear it, their spirit is just instantly lifted. We need those songs. They brighten our day, put a smile on our face, and make us feel hopeful and even cheerful.

For me, that song is "Wonderful (The Way I Feel)," by My Morning Jacket. It's also the song I have been singing along to all week. It's stuck in my head and I am so glad it won't get out!

My Morning Jacket is a Louisville band, and being a Kentucky girl myself, I love it when Kentucky boys make it!  That's just a little added tidbit of info for you all this week. :)

Read the lyrics and watch the video and see if this song doesn't make you feel like everything is just going to be OK? I bet by this time next week, it's stuck in your head too.

"Wonderful (The Way I Feel)" by My Morning Jacket

It matters to me
Took a long time to get here
If it would have been easy
I would not have cared

Like a tropical forest
Like a cop on the beat
When all is in order
You get lost in the heat

I feel so wonderful, wonderful, wonderful the way I feel
I feel so wonderful, wonderful, wonderful the way I feel

Doesn't matter to me
I could take it or leave it
I could learn from way back when
And still live right now

With the sun on my shoulder
And the wind in my back
I will never grow older
At least not in my mind

I feel so wonderful, wonderful, wonderful the way I feel
I feel so wonderful, wonderful, wonderful the way I feel
So wonderful, wonderful the way I feel
I feel so wonderful, wonderful, wonderful the way I feel

I'm going where there ain't no fear
I'm going where the spirit is near
I'm going where the living is easy
And the people are kind
A new state of mind

I'm going where there ain't no police
I'm going where there ain't no disease
I'm going where there ain't no need
To escape from what is
Only spirits at ease
