Let the 70 degrees come in, yeah (ah yeah) I been driving 16 hours, still can't get, get, get away (ah yeah) I could try to drink it all better, now Wouldn't be my first time, hey (ah yeah) I got more time than a minute left, left But I love to watch it waste (ah yeah) Sit high on the riptide Made a quick right, dive down to the waves (ah yeah) Left a couple bags back at the door just didn't want to bring them all in Went back for another trip and it's stacked up again I just want to know how long I gotta get things wrong before I get 'em right And I don't want to sing the same old song Just saying how I finally feel better now 'Cause it's alright Alright not to be alright, alright not to be alright Alright not to be alright, even if the sun don't shine Alright not to be alright, alright not to be alright And if it's just one of those days Pretending ain't never gon' change nothing, no (ah yeah) I think I look for admiration in wrong places I think that every line I write I don't ever say shit Don't even know myself on a first name basis I hate the road life so I stay in the basement Hope they find a replacement for me 'Cause there's somewhere else I got to be Feel like I've seen it all, this quarter-century arc Please world, what you got for me? I just want to know how long I gotta get things wrong before I get 'em right And I don't want to sing the same old song Just saying how I finally feel better now 'Cause it's alright Alright not to be alright, alright not to be alright Alright not to be alright, even if the sun don't shine Alright not to be alright, alright not to be alright And if it's just one of those days Pretending ain't never gon' change nothing Alright not to be alright, alright not to be alright Alright not to be alright, even if the sun don't shine Alright not to be alright, alright not to be alright Put on your happy face, that'll surely make it go away Put on your happy face, even if it's just pretending now Put on your happy face, that'll surely make it go away Put on your happy face, even if it's just pretending now Put on your happy face, that'll surely make it go away Put on your happy face, even if it's just pretending now Put on your happy face, that'll surely make it go away Put on your happy face, even if it's just pretending now Put on your happy face, that'll surely make it go away Put on your happy face, even if it's just pretending now
