Song Description

A song of greatfulness for being alive.

Lyrics

I been sitting out on the verandah
with the dogs sitting down at my feet
got a stubby or two of the old home brew
yeah life is sweet

looking out at the young ones playing tag on the lawn
makes a heart feel young just to look at them
It makes a heart feel warm

Life is good life is good
Things are working out
Just the way that they should right now
Oh yeah
Life is good

I been driving round in the tractor
Ploughing up the back field
There's a load of grain sittin there in the ground
It's Gonna be a hell of a yield

They say the rains are coming
And the drought'll be done real soon
When I hand that cheque to the bloke at the bank
We'll be free again

Life is good -

Instrumental bridge

I'm Goin' back to town on Tuesday
The doc's gonna do some more tests
Been over a year ince I got the all clear
you don't need to know the rest
For every breath that I'm taking
And every face that I see
I send a prayer of thanks to the universe
Cause ......'Life'
life is good you see
Life is good life is good
Things are working out
Just the way that they should right now
Oh yeah
Life is good life is good
Things are working out
Just the way that they should right now
Oh yeah
Life is good to me
Oh yeah
Life is good
