Lyrics
V1
Woke up this morning, put my feet on the floor
Stretched my weary bones, feeling achy and sore
Then I shuffled to the kitchen for my morning java fix
Just a couple swigs always seem to do the trick.
chorus
Halleluiah, Celebrate
I've got another day, and I just can't wait
I don't know what's before me. I can take what's in store
Good golly Lord, you gave me one day more
V2
Starin' in the mirror at this stranger in my room
She's lookin' back at me, she smells of my perfume
And I see the true reflection of a woman worn by time
still I have to smile when I look into her eyes
chorus
Halleluiah, Celebrate
I've got another day, and I just can't wait
I don't know what's before me. I can take what's in store
Good golly Lord, you gave me one day more
V3
Open up the paper and I read the daily news
Every page I turn is singing me the blues
Makes me I think about the troubles in my own peculiar life
They're really very small next to the sadness and the strife
final chorus
Halleluiah, Celebrate
I've got another day, and I just can't wait
I don't know what's before me. I can take what's in store
Good golly Lord, you gave me one day more
Good golly, Lord, you gave me one day, one day, one day more
Good golly Lord......you gave me one......day.........more
