Lyrics
FIRST DAY OF SPRING
©2011 Scott James Stambaugh
It's a world of trouble and I know
You could crumble from the weight of everything
But I ain't gonna let it get me down today, no, no
Because it's the first day of spring
CHORUS
It's the first day of Spring
It's the first day of Spring
I'm afraid to go outside because there's a big orange ball hanging in the sky
And I know, yes I know
That any minute man's best friend
Is gonna shake awake and come bursting in
Saying, Come on now, Come on, let's go
Don't you know, Don't you know
CHORUS X 2
BRIDGE
Winter's been one stone-cold bummer
And for all we know, so will summer
But who's to say what tomorrow brings
It might be better, it might be worse
We might be blessed or we might be cursed
But, today is the first day of Spring
Now, you go find your Summer dress
And I'll put on my very best
Hawaiian shirt and we'll dance the rest
Of this day away
Because I know it ain't quite Summer yet
But I'll take whatever I can get
Because, it's been one long cruel Winter, baby
Because, it's been one long cruel Winter, baby
Because, it's been one long cruel Winter, baby
Because, it's been one long cruel Winter, honey
It's a world of sorrow and I know
You could crumble from the weight of everything
But I ain't gonna let it get me down today, no, no
It's the first day of Spring
