Oh! It's a good
day, for singin' a song,
An' it's a good
day for movin' along,
Yes, it's a good
day, how could anything go wrong?
A good day from mornin' 'till night!
Yes it's a good
day, (
it's a lovely day for shinin' )
for shinin' your shoes
An' it's a good
day (
if you wan' a silver linin' )
for losin' the blues
( You got . .
. )
Everything t' gain
( everythin' t' gain and nuthin' )
and nuthin' t' lose,
'Cuz it's a good
day from mornin' to night!
( You're right! )
I said to the sun,
"Good Mornin' Sun!"
"Rise an'
shine t'day!"
You kno' you gotta
get goin'
if you're gonna make a showin'
And you kno' you
got the right of way!
'Cause it's a good
day for payin' your bills,
And it's a good
day for curin' your ills,
So, take a deep
breath, throw away all your pills,
'Cause it's a good
day from mornin' 'till night!
( Just this very
day, I said to the sun, "Good Mornin' Sun!"
"Rise an'
shine, why don't you rise and shine?" )
You kno' you gotta
get goin'
if you wanna make a showin'
And you kno'
you've got the right of way!
'Cause it's a good
day for payin' your bills,
And it's a '
gooood ' day for curin' your ills,
So, take a deep
breath ( Ahhh! )
throw away all your pills,
'Cause it's a good
day from mornin' 'till night!
( Say that again! )
Oh it's a good day
from mornin' 'till night
( That's what he
said! )
Yes it's a good
day from mornin' 'till night!
