Текст песни It's A Great Day To Be Alive (Live From The Ryman) - Ben Rector

I got a rice cookin' in the microwave
A three-day beard I don't plan to shave
And it's a goofy thing but I just gotta say
I'm, I'm doin' alright
I think I'll make me some homemade soup
I'm feelin' pretty good now and that's the truth
Yeah it's neither drink nor drug-induced
I'm just doin' alright

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

It's been fifteen years since I left home
I said goodbye to every seed I'd sown
Yeah I did my best and then I left it alone
I'm just doin' alright
I 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
I'm just doin' alright

Here we go
It's a great day to be alive
You know the sun's still shinin' when I close my eyes
There's some 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
Yeah

That was good
I forgot the rest of the words

I think I'll get me a new tattoo
Or take my Harley for a three-day cruise
Yeah might even grow me a Fu Manchu
You guys got that

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

Yeah give it up for Austin Goodloe everybody
