It’s a Great Day to Be Alive [Live at Fenway Park, Boston, MA, 06.16.2018]

[Intro]
Y'all welcome Mr. Darrell Scott
Thank you

[Verse 1]
I got rice cookin' in the microwave
I got a three day beard I don't plan to shave
And it's a goofy thing but I just gotta say, hey man, I'm doin' alright
Well, I think I'll make me some homemade soup
I'm feelin' pretty good and that's the gospel truth
It's neither drink nor drug induced, no, I'm just doin' alright

[Chorus]
And it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shining when I close my eyes, there's some
Hard times in the neighborhood
But why can't every day be just this good?

[Verse 2]
It's been fifteen years since I left home
And said good luck to еvery seed I'd sown
Gave 'em my bеst then I left 'em alone
Oh, I hope they're doin' alright
Well, red bird, red bird, now what do you see?
I see a lone wolf there starin' back at me
Long in the tooth but harmless as a tree
Oh, I guess he's doing alright

[Chorus]
And it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shining when I close my eyes, there's some
Hard times in the neighborhood
But why can't every day be just this good?

[Bridge]
Sometimes it's lonesome, and sometimes it's only me
And all of the shadows that fill this room
Sometimes I'm falling, desperately calling
And howlin' at the moon, come on, give us a big howl, ah-ooh
One more big howl now, ah-ooh

[Verse 3]
Well, it's a colorful life that we go through
It's neither black and white, nor just shades of blue now
Maybe I'll grow me a Fu-Manchu

[Chorus]
Yeah, it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shining when I close my eyes, there's some
Hard times in the neighborhood
But why, why, why
It's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shining when I close my eyes, there's some
Hard times in the neighborhood
But why can't every day be just this good?

[Post-Chorus]
One more howl at the moon now
Ah-ooh

[Outro]
Mr. Darrell Scott, y'all
