Lyrics
[verse]
Woke up this morning to a rooster's call
Coffee's brewing, sunshine on the wall
Radio's playing something with a beat
Bacon in the pan, dancing on my feet
Don't need a reason, don't need a why
Just glad to be under this open sky
[chorus]
It's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still gonna rise
I know the sky's still gonna be blue
I know I'll find a smile or two
Nothing's perfect but I don't mind
It's a great day and I'm doing fine
It's a great day to be alive
[verse]
Neighbor's waving from across the yard
Kids on bikes, riding fast and hard
Truck won't start but the day's still young
Found the humor in every rung
Some days knock you flat on the floor
But today ain't one of those, that's for sure
[chorus]
It's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still gonna rise
I know the sky's still gonna be blue
I know I'll find a smile or two
Nothing's perfect but I don't mind
It's a great day and I'm doing fine
It's a great day to be alive
[bridge]
Life ain't always easy, life ain't always fair
But there's something good in the ordinary air
Gonna grab this day and hold it tight
Gonna celebrate it till the porch light
[chorus]
It's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still gonna rise
I know the sky's still gonna be blue
I know I'll find a smile or two
Nothing's perfect but I don't mind
It's a great day and I'm doing fine
It's a great day to be alive
