Feel No Shame Lyrics

Feel No Shame

Tell the story!

Innes Book of Records Once I knew a love so true
Every inch an artist
An eye for detail, without equal
And a face for trusting

A country girl who knew the world
But who's judgment was too reckless
And when in turn she showed concern
She wore it like a necklace

So come on now, have yourself a good time
Go out and share the blame
Do what you should but if it makes you feel good
I hope you feel no shame

She could not see that sympathy
Was no recompense
A gift belated, motivated
By a guilty conscience

A hand that steals and a hand that heals
The Anglo-Saxon attitude
The hand that feeds the hand that needs
Can expect no gratitude

So come on now, have yourself a good time
Go out and share the blame
Do what you should but if it makes you feel good
I hope you feel no shame ]

Oh, what I'd give once more to live
In childhood innocence
The things men do with words so true
Would seem much more like common sense

Innes Book of RecordsAn empire built on civilized guilt
Yet the homeland still is the stranger
To my friends who make amends
But in tryin' see no danger

So come on, have yourself a good time
Go out and share the blame
Do what you should but if it makes you feel good
I hope you feel no shame

I hope you feel no shame
I hope you feel no shame on you

Yeah... yeah yeah yeah!

Whoaaah!

I hope, I hope you feel no shame
