"Ordinary Day" lyrics

"Ordinary Day"

I've got a smile on my face, and I've got four walls around me
I've got the sun in the sky, all the water surround me, oh you know
Yeah, I'll win now but sometimes I'll lose
I've been battered, but I never bruise
It's not so bad

And I say way-hey-hey, it's just an ordinary day
And it's all your state of mind
At the end of the day, you've just got to say
It's all right

Janie sings on the corner, what keeps her from dying?
Let them say what they want, she won't stop trying, oh you know
She might stumble, if they push her 'round
She might fall, but she'll never lie down
It's not so bad

And I say way-hey-hey, it's just an ordinary day
And it's all your state of mind
At the end of the day, you've just got to say
It's all right
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right

In this beautiful life, there's always some sorrow
And it's a double-edged knife, but there's always tomorrow, oh you know
It's up to you now if you sink or swim
Just keep the faith and your ship will come in
It's not so bad

And I say way-hey-hey, it's just an ordinary day
And it's all your state of mind
At the end of the day, you've just got to say
I say way-hey-hey, it's just an ordinary day
And it's all your state of mind
At the end of the day, you've just got to say
It's all right

'Cause it's all right, it's all right
'Cause I've got a smile on my face and I've got four walls around me
