Lyrics

I Like to Feel my Bones,
I Like to Feel my Bones,
I Like to Feel my Bones,
I Like to Feel my Bones,
Cuz when I Feel my Bones,
I know that I'm alive

I Like to scratch my head,
a scritchy scratchin' my head
when I 'm sitting on the bed
then I can scratch my head
and when I scratch my head,
I know that I'm not dead

I know that I am living
I know life treats me kind
when I look into the mirror
it's my soul I find

I like to shake my hips
and I like to lick my lips
my head, my shoulders, finger tips
I like to shake my hips
when I lick my lips
mmm, mmmm, mmm, mmm

I like to squeeze my kids
I love to squeeze those kids
I feed'm cloth'm sing'm songs
my kids can do no wrong
and when I hold'm near
I know that's why I'm here

I know that I am living
I know life treats me kind
when I look into the mirror
it's my soul that I find

I Like to Feel my Bones,
