Lyrics:

Down in Louisiana, I knew an old blind man
This is what he told me when I tried to lend a helping hand
I go by feel
I go by feel
The only way I know is real
I go by feel

People always ask me about the blues I play
Tell 'em it just come through me, I don't know no other way
I go by feel
Mm-mm, I go by feel
The only way I know is real
I, I go by feel

Sometimes it seems like a mystery
I close my eyes and it come to me
Something that I don't understand
I open my heart and it flows through my hand

When I'm with a woman and I wonder is it love
All the proof I need is right there in her touch
I go by feel
Mm-mm, I go by feel

The only way I know is real
I go by feel
Oh, oh, I go by feel
I go by feel

The only way I know is real
I go by feel
