Story Behind The Song

A cashier saying "have a good day" made me think. It's typically just words that nobody takes seriously. What if every time someone said it you took it to heart and said to yourself " yeah, I am gonna have a good day. It would really lift your spirits

Lyrics

Everyday's a grind I can find nothing fun to do
every morning I'm ornery till I get my caffeine brew
As I was paying for my coffee, something the cashier said to me
hearing it as I was checking out, he gave me something to think about

Have a good day, Have a good day, Have a good day (la la la la la la)
Have a good day, Have a good day, Have a good day (la la la la la la)

Then I realized what I despised was being caused by me
Everyday's a choice, I hear that voice playing constantly
Why be content with being boring, when what I want is to have fun
living every day repeating those 4 words a whole new life has begun

Everytime I hear somebody say it now it makes me think
When I'm going down I turn around it pulls me from the brink
I know it sounds like it's too simple, but I am telling you it works
So next time somebody says it to you, take it in and it'll cure what hurts
