Ordinary Day Songtext
von Great Big Sea

I′ve got a smile on my face and I've got four walls around me
I′ve got the sun in the sky, all the water surround me, oh, you know
Yeah, I win now and sometimes I lose
I've been battered, but I never bruise
It's not so bad

And I say way-hey-hey, it′s just an ordinary day
And it′s all your state of mind
At the end of the day
You've just got to say it′s all right

Janie sings on the corner, what keeps her from dying
Let them say what they want, she won't stop trying, oh, you know
She might stumble if they push her ′round
She might fall, but she'll never lie down
It′s not so bad


And I say way-hey-hey, it's just an ordinary day
And it's all your state of mind
At the end of the day
You′ve just got to say it′s all right
It's all right, it′s all right
It's all right

In this beautiful life there′s always some sorrow
And It's a double-edged knife, but there′s always tomorrow, oh, you know
It's up to you now if you sink or swim
Just keep the faith that your ship will come in
It's not so bad

And I say way-hey-hey, it′s just an ordinary day
And it′s all your state of mind
At the end of the day
You've just got to say
I say way-hey-hey, it′s just an ordinary day
And it's all your state of mind
At the end of the day
You′ve just got to say it's all right

It′s all right, it's all right
'Cause I′ve got a smile on my face, and I′ve got four walls around me
