Story Behind The Song
Someone asked me how to write a song and I started with a blues rhythm and just started making stuff up about being satisfied with life.

Lyrics
Verse 1
I woke up this morning and the sun shone down on me
And I thought, "Lord, this is where I want to be"
I walked on to my kitchen stove and poured me a cup of tea
And I thought, "Lord, this is where I want to be"
I pulled back the top on my automobile and I turned the ignition key
And I thought, "Lord, this is where I want to be"
Verse 2
When I waved to those passers-by they waved right back at me
And I thought, "Lord, this is where I want to be"
When I laid down my weary head, she laid right next to me
And I thought, "Lord, this is where I want to be"
TAG
I woke up this morning and the sun shone down on me
And I thought, "Lord, this is where I want to be"
I thought, "Lord, this is where I want to be"
I thought, "Lord, this is where I want to be"
