Lyrics

[Verse 1] Trouble by the pound Smile upside down Future unknown Out here on my own But it's good to be alive Nice to breathe And somehow I, I will survive Mhm, mhm [Verse 2] When it rains it pours Lately closed doors, mm Rain brings me pain But I'll carry on the same Oh, it's good to be alive, oh-ho-ho Nice to breathe And somehow I will survive [Chorus] Ain't it good, to be alive Ain't it good, to be alive Ain't it good, to be alive Ain't it good, to be alive Good to be alive Nice to breathe And somehow you and I will survive [Verse 3] Old man fate Gave me an empty plate (yes he did) No soup for my spoon Gotta get better soon 'Cause it's good to be alive Nice to breathe And somehow, the whole world will survive Mhm, mhm [Verse 4] Trying to be a man Lord, help me stand Take my dreams out the sand It's mighty good to be alive - hey, hey, hey! Through it all (through it all) I had a ball (yes I did) When my name is called (mhm) And they asked how I survived I'll just say it was good to be alive - hey, hey, hey! [Verse 5] Trying to be a man (yes I am) I wanna stand (mmm) Lift my dreams out the sand Cause it's sho' good to be alive Oh, it's good (it's good to be alive) Tell the world it's good, yeah (it's good to be alive) It's good, ooh!
