Today Will Be A Good Day |
In the sweet light of the morning |
When the sun begins to rise |
I was awakened by some singing |
Of birds just flying by |
Now they was tellin' one another |
Today will be a good day |
I’m gonna make it that way |
I got my (?) to greet the day |
Thank the good lord for what he made |
Made my bed up |
Had myself some coffee |
Read the newspaper |
To see what they had to say |
Now whether it’s good news |
Or it’s just blues |
Today will be a good day |
I’m gonna make it that way |
Gonna be a good day |
Yes a good day |
A good day |
I’m gonna make it that way |
Gonna be a good day |
Lord, a good day |
Ooo good day |
I wouldn’t have it any other way |
Now whether it’s good news |
Or it’s just blues |
Today will be a good day |
I’ve got to make it that way, yeah, yeah |
My God gave me a will |
And a voice |
I can make a difference |
With just one choice |
You see the kingdom of heaven |
Is at hand |
As long as I’m living |
I’m gonna take a stand |
I’m gonna do my best |
Hear me when I say |
'Cause oday will be a good day |
Gonna make it that way |
Gonna be a good day |
Yes a good day |
A good day |
I’m gonna make it that way |
Gonna be a good day |
Lord a good day |
Ooo good day |
I wouldn’t have it any other way |
Now whether it’s good news |
Or it’s just blues |
Today will be a good day |
I’ve got to make it that way, ooo, ooo |
Hey yeah, ooo, ooo, yeah |
I don’t entertain boredom |
I don’t entertain pain |
No route for depression |
Don’t want to complain |
I’ve seen heaven |
Bring through hell |
There’s so many stories I can tell |
Gonna live my best |
So I can honor my God |
I’ve picked a long life |
I know when I, I know that I |
Gonna spread the good news |
Gonna spread the good news |
Lord knows that I’ve paid my dues |
Yes today’s gonna be a good day |
I wouldn’t have it any way |
Today’s gonna be |
Yes today’s gonna be a good day |
I wouldn’t have it any other way |
I wouldn’t have it any other way |
I wouldn’t have it any other way |
I wouldn’t have it any other way |
I wouldn’t have it any other way |
What’d you say? |
Whoo yeah! |
Unh yeah! |
Ooooo! |
Yeah, yeaaaha |
