Lyrics
The sun is shining and the sky is blue, nobody 'round nobody but you,
No-one can tell you if you're right or wrong, singing the words to that old blues song.
No-one can tell you the time you took,
No-one can call you the 'phone's off the hook,
No-one gonna give you a second look ,
Its a good day - for stayin' at home.
Well its a hard life workin' all day, gotta run just to earn your pay,
Leave your troubles by the door, throw those old shoes across the floor,
Just a beer and a crazy chair,
The birds are singing there's a breeze in the air,
You can't remember so you just don't care
Its a good day - for stayin' at home.
I got a roof and I've got my bed, there ain't no-one gettin' inside my head,
I've lost a fortune but I've struck on gold, there ain't no-one that can buy my soul,
Just a beer and a crazy chair,
The birds are singing there's a breeze in the air,
You can't remember so you just don't care
Its a good day - for stayin' at home.
