No Such Thing As a Bad Day (Shaun Hinebaugh/Purdum)

When I was just a young boy, my daddy said to me
Come over here by me son, and he sat me on his knee
He said you know that I been real sick and I know I don't have long.

But there's something I gotta tell you now son please don't get me wrong.

There ain't no such thing as a bad day.
Though you might feel it in a sad way

Though you may feel a little down,
There's still time to turn around

And though you may try to live for tomorrow,
Tomorrow might not come anyway

So no matter what you may lose,
You know you've always got today

There ain't no such thing as a bad day.

He said I know that life is full of pain and I know it ain't always fair

And I know there's a lotta bad people and a lotta bad things out there

But don't let it get you down son. No don't let it bother you

Cuz here's a little piece of wisdom that'll help to get you through

There ain't no such thing as a bad day.
Though you might feel it in a sad way

Though you may feel a little down,
There's still time to turn around

And though you may try to live for tomorrow,
Tomorrow might not come anyway

So no matter what you may lose,
You know you've always got today

There ain't no such thing as a bad day.

You may get fed up like you've had enough,
Feel like your whole life is in tatters

Feel beat down, pushed around and torn apart and shattered
Well the good Lord gave you life today and son I tell you that its true
That's really all that you can ask for, cuz all the rest is up to you

There ain't no such thing as a bad day.
Though you might feel it in a sad way

Though you may feel a little down,
There's still time to turn around

And though you may try to live for tomorrow,
Tomorrow might not come anyway

So no matter what you may lose,
You know you've always got today

There ain't no such thing as a bad day.
