When my Uncle Sonny blew back into town
Said Ill just go for a ride
and have a look around
And he took off his fedora
and stuck his fingers in the crown
And he pulled out 20 dollars
and he laid that money down
And he called out to a taxi cab
Take me down to Central Park
and keep that meter running
to the 20 dollar mark
And he kept his eyes turned forward
and he sat up straight and tall
And no one even noticed him
no one cared at all
Its a fine fine day
for a reunion
Its a fine fine day
for coming home
You did your sittin
you did hard time
But you aint gonna sit no more
they cant keep you there no more
Its a fine fine day
And nothings gonna take you
nothings gonna take you away
Its a fine fine day, fine day
First time I saw Sonny
I was just about this tall
And he always made my Momma
kinda crazy when hed call
Him and my old man would
stand and whisper in the hall
Then theyd disappear
and maybe not come home at all
Then one day Sonny stopped coming around
Heard hed gotten himself into
a little trouble in town
Sometime after that he
finally disappeared for good
Then he pulled that old Houdini
like we always knew he would
ooh ooh, a fine fine day, fine day
ooh ooh, a fine fine day, fine day
I see you made it back alright, alright
I see youre none the worse for wear
Its been a long time comin
Nothings gonna drag you away from here
A fine fine day
And nothings gonna take you
nothings gonna take you away
Oh yeah, a fine fine day, oh yeah
a fine day
repeat to fade
