Was a Sunny Day

Paul Simon

Was a sunny day
Not a cloud was in the sky
Not a negative word was heard
From the people's passing byIt was a sunny day
All the birdies in the trees
And the radio's singing song
All the favorite melodiesHe was a navy man
Stationed in Newport News
She was a highschool queen
With nothing really left to lose
She was a highschool queen
With nothing really left to loseWas a sunny day
Not a cloud was in the sky
Not a negative word was heard
From the people's passing byIt was a sunny day
All the birdies in the trees
And the radio's singing song
All the favorite melodiesHer name was Lorelei
She was his only girl
She called him Speedoo
But his Christian name was mister Earl
She called him Speedoo
But his Christian name was mister EarlWas a sunny day
Not a cloud was in the sky
Not a negative word was heard
From the people's passing byIt was a sunny day
All the birdies in the trees
And the radio's singing song
All the favorite melodiesWas a sunny day
Not a cloud was in the sky
Not a negative word was heard
From the people's passing by
