It's Good to Be Alive

See that herd of birds ridin' through the blue
Can't you hear their words
Callin' down to you?

Life is short, they sing
Still we rush and strive
For we know one thing:
It's good to be alive

Cactus on the plain rassle with the dust
Pantin' for the rain just because they must
Still somehow they grow
Still somehow they thrive
Could it be they know
It's good to be alive

I'm not sayin' life is all sunshine and roses
Sometimes it's hard to live
But you must admit it's a bit more appealin'
Than the alternative

Hear the coyotes bay
In the desert night
Shadowin' their prey
Bustin' for a fight

Brawlin' tooth and claw
That's how they survive
They know but one goal
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
