Rise and Shine
Drew James © 2004
 
Rise and shine
The morning sky is getting clearer
Leave Mr. Worry behind
Shrinking in your rear view mirror
 
Tuck that belly in
Whistle like the wind
Count your blessings on your dirty fingers
Put on some favorite clothes
Hang a smile beneath your nose
I’ll meet you where the blues never lingers
 
Rise and shine
Get that chip off your shoulder
You’re one of a kind
There’s more to life than just getting older
 
Don’t try and pretend
You know how the story ends
You don’t even know where it is written
C’mon take a chance
Pull that wallet from your pants
And I’ll bet you this day’s worth living
 
Rise and shine
The morning sky is getting clearer
Leave Mr. Worry behind
Shrinking in your rear view mirror
And don’t be surprised
If happiness comes a little nearer
 
Like the sun in the sky
Let it rise and shine
