IT'S A GREAT DAY TO BE ALIVE

I got rice cooking in the microwave
Got a three-day beard I don't plan to shave
It's a goofy thing but I just gotta say
"Hey, I'm doing alright"
I think I'll make me some homemade soup
Feelin' pretty good and that's the truth, yeah
It's neither drink or drug induced
No, I'm just doin' alright

And it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin' when I close my eyes
There's hard times in the neighborhood
But why can't every day be just this good?

It's been 15 years since I left home
And said good luck to every seed I'd sown
Gave it my best and then I left it alone
Oh, I hope they're doin' alright
Look in the mirror and what do I see?
A lone wolf there starin' back at me, yeah
Long in the tooth but harmless as can be
Lord, I hope he's doin' alright

And it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin' when I close my eyes
There'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 fallin'
Desperately callin'
Howlin' at the moon, ah-ooh
Woo

Might go get me a new tattoo
Take my old Jeep for a three-day cruise
Might even grow me a Fu Manchu

And it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin' when I close my eyes
There's hard times in the neighborhood
Why can't every day be just this good?

It's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin' when I close my eyes
There's hard times in the neighborhood
But why can't every day be just this good?

Ah-ooh
Ah-ooh, yeah
Hey
Oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah
