[Lyrics for Darrell Scott – It S A Great Day To Be Alive]
I got rice cooking in the microwave
I got a three day beard, I don’t plan to shave
And it’s a goofy thing but I just gotta say, I’m doing all right
I think I’ll make me some homemade soup
I’m feeling pretty good and that’s the truth
It’s neither drink nor drug induced, no I’m just doing all right
And it’s a great day to be alive
I know the sun’s still shining when I close my eyes
It’s hard times in the neighborhood
But why can’t every day be just this good?
It’s been fifteen years since I left home
Said good luck to every seed I’d sown
Gave it my best, then I left it alone
I hope they’re doing all right
Now,”Red bird, red bird, whata you see?”
He says, “I see a long wolf lookin’ at me
Head in the clouds but harmless as a tree.”
Ew,I guess he’s doing all right
And it’s a great day to be alive
I know the sun’s still shining when I close my eyes
It’s hard times in the neighborhood
But why can’t every day be just this good?
Sometimes it’s lonely
Sometimes it’s only me and the shadows that fill this room
Sometimes I’m falling, desperately calling, howling at the moon
Aw OOOOOOOH……Aw OOOOOOH
Yeah, It’s a colorful life that we go through
It’s neither black or white, but just shades of blue
……Maybe I’ll grow me a fu man chu
Ow, it’s a great day to be alive
I know the sun’s still shinnin’ when I close my eyes
It’s a hard times in the neighborhood
But why can’t every day be just the good?
It’s a great day to be alive
I know the sun’s still shinnin’ when I close my eyes
It’s a hard times in the neighborhood
But why can’t every day be just as good?
Aw OOOOOOH
