(Verse 1)
I was drivin’ down a back road, sky turning black,
Stopped for a spell at a rundown old shack.
A man with a grin too wide for comfort there,
Eyes like shadows with a cold, empty stare.
He offered me a deal, a smile to deceive,
But somethin’ in my chest told me I should leave.
I looked at that stranger, didn’t take long to see,
That gut feelin’ whispered, "Boy, set yourself free."
(Chorus)
If you get that gut feelin’, don’t you ignore,
It’s a warning bell knocking at your heart’s door.
You may not see the danger or know what’s at stake,
But trust that voice when your soul starts to shake.
If you get that gut feelin’, listen and run,
It might just save you from what’s meant to come.
(Verse 2)
Well, my friend Jake met a beauty one fall,
She had a smile that lit up every dance hall.
But late at night, she’d whisper sweet lies,
And tears would hide in the corners of her eyes.
Jake said, “I love her, but somethin’ ain’t right,”
That gut feelin’ kept him awake every night.
He found out later, she had plans to leave,
Take his money and heart, make him grieve.
(Chorus)
If you get that gut feelin’, don’t you ignore,
It’s a warning bell knocking at your heart’s door.
You may not see the danger or know what’s at stake,
But trust that voice when your soul starts to shake.
If you get that gut feelin’, listen and run,
It might just save you from what’s meant to come.
(Bridge)
I’ve learned that the heart knows things we can’t explain,
It’s felt the hurt, seen the storms and the rain.
So when it whispers, like a ghost in the night,
Trust that feelin’, it’s protectin’ your light.
(Verse 3)
Met a stranger at a crossroads, shiny black boots,
Talkin’ sweet promises, golden-flamed roots.
He said, “Sign right here, make your dreams all true,”
But that gut feelin’ told me somethin’ he knew.
I walked away, left his shadow behind,
He cursed at me, but I didn’t mind.
Sometimes it ain’t about what you can see,
It’s what your soul senses that sets you free.
(Chorus)
If you get that gut feelin’, don’t you ignore,
It’s a warning bell knocking at your heart’s door.
You may not see the danger or know what’s at stake,
But trust that voice when your soul starts to shake.
If you get that gut feelin’, listen and run,
It might just save you from what’s meant to come.
(Outro)
Yeah, life’s full of choices, crossroads and deals,
People who’ll trick you, make you question what’s real.
But trust that old wisdom deep in your chest,
That gut feelin’ will lead you to what’s best.
So next time it whispers, don’t you think twice,
Your heart knows the truth when it feels that ice.
