(13,260 posts)202. I can't resist: "It's a Beautiful Morning" - lyrics and video included :)
A Beautiful Morning
Good Sunday Morning.
The Rascals
It's a beautiful morning, ah
I think I'll go outside for a while and just smile
Just take in some clean fresh air, boy
(Ain't) no sense in staying inside
If the weather's fine and you got the time
It's your chance to wake up and plan another brand-new day
(Either way) it's a beautiful morning, ah
Each bird keeps singing his own song, so long
I've got to be on my way now
(Ain't) no fun just hanging around
I got to cover ground, you couldn't keep me down
It just ain't no good if the sun shines
When you're still inside (shouldn't hide)
Still inside (shouldn't hide)
Still inside (shouldn't hide)
Still in-, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oo-ooh-ah-ah
Oo-ooh-ah-ah
There will be children with robins and flowers
Sunshine caresses each new waking hour
Seems to me that people keep seeing more and more each day
(Gotta say) lead the way
(It's okay) brand-new day
(Gotta say) it's okay
Wednesday, Thursday, it's okay
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oo-ooh-ah-ah
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oo-ooh-ah-ah
Whoa, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oo-ooh-ah-ah
Oh (ooh-ah-ah)
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oo-ooh-ah-ah
