Lyrics
I was dying of malaria at the age of two My mama and my papa didn’t know what to do All the women in the village came and gathered around Sister Rose, sister Rose get this child outa town She took me to a woman who read invisible cards She held me up and looked at me long and hard I’ve seen a familiar spirit playing with your child Miss Georgie never saw me before she died CHORUS I’M FEELING FLINKY AND I’M FEELING WILD I THINK I’VE GOT SOMETHING DEEP INSIDE, I’M FEELING RATHER FLINKY AND I’M FEELING WILD I THINK I’VE GOT SOMETHING DEEP INSIDE. She said to my mother, come and see me again I see a journey in your future with a lot of pain Come back and let me wash you Or get drenched in the rain She bathed me in some herbs and sent us away I drank cornmeal porridge, sweat and started to play With my fingers in the dirt I was having a ball Deaths angel ran away on another call Sister Suzy was a healer sent from above A sweet revival-woman who was filled with love If it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t be here now She used her power to heal me, but I don’t know how
