It’s a Great Day To Be Alive - Austin Jenckes

It’s a Great Day To Be Alive Lyrics

I got rice cookin' in the microwave
Got a three day beard I don't plan to shave
And it's a goofy thing but I just gotta say, hey
I'm doin' alrightYeah I think I'll make me some homemade soup
I'm feelin' pretty good and that's the truth
It's neither drink nor drug induced, no
I'm just doin' alrightAnd it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin'
When I close my eyes
There's some hard times in the neighborhood
But why can't everyday be just this goodIt'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
I hope they're doin' alrightNow I look in teh mirror and what do I see
A lone wolf there starin' back at me
Long in the tooth but harmless as can be
Lord I guess he's doin' alrightAnd it's a great day to be aliveI know the sun's still shinin'
When I close my eyes

There's some hard times in the neighborhood
But why can't everyday be just this goodSometimes it lonely, sometimes it's only me
And the shadows that fill this room
Sometimes I'm fallin', desperately callin'
Howlin' at the moon, ah-oohWell I might go get me a new tattoo
Or take my old Harley for a three day cruise
Might even grow me a Fu Man ChuAnd it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin'
When I close my eyes
There's some hard times in the neighborhood
But why can't everyday be just this goodIt's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin'
When I close my eyes
There's some hard times in the neighborhood
But why can't everyday be just this good
