Rising Blues

I woke up this morning
seemed like a brand new day
I woke up this morning
thought it was a brand new day
saw my old friends, Hope and Joy, but they...
had to be on their way

The sun was shining
Bright... down on me
that yellow sun was smiling
Right... down on me
told me... have a nice day, but don't...
expect nothing for free

We got... no place to go
no place to hide
I'm gonna... step back... retrack...
enjoy the ride

We will be stronger my friend
day by day... and bit by bit
we gotta get a little stronger now
there's just one life... and this is it
let's sit down and have a laugh, you know...
you can't make up this crazy shit

We got... no place to go
no place to hide
I'm gonna... step back... retrack...
enjoy the ride
