a lovely day

Gil Scott-heron

One, two, three, four. Smile

It s on a clear spring morning, there s not a
Cloud in the sky
And it s got me out here walking and waving to the ladies
As they stroll by, and I
Ain t forgot for a moment all the things
I need to do, but when I
See that old sun shining, it makes me think that I can
Make it too, yes, and
All I really wanna say is that the
Problems come and go, but the sunshine
Seems to stay
And just look around
I think we ve found a
A lovely day

The flowers woke up blooming and put on a color show
Just for me-I appreciate it
The shadows dark and gloomy, I told them all to keep
The hell away from me because I
Don t feel like believing everything I do gon
Turn out wrong a-when vi
brations I m receiving say, Hold on, brother, just
You be strong, yes, and
All I really wanna say is that the
Problems come and go, but the sunshine
Seems to stay, hey
Just look around
I think we ve found a
A lovely day

Sometimes it rains, and I
Feel kind of strange because it
Seems like my problems begin without the
Sunshine on which I depend, and
All that make me feel like I need to hear the
Sun say is: hey, just look around
I think we ve found a
A lovely day, I think we ve
Found a lovely day
I think we ve found a lovely
Lovely-don t it feel like a lovely
Day
