NOTHING
GOING TO BRING ME DOWN
VERSE 1
I woke up this morning wondering what the day would bring.
Would it be happy would it be sad, would it be the same old thing?
I picked up the morning paper but man I had to put it down.
I can’t use anymore bad news, nothing going to bring me down.
CHORUS
Nothing going to bring me down, I say it with a smile.
Life is to short we're only here for such a little while.
I control my situation with a new attitude I found.
I’m looking up far as I see, nothing going to bring me down.
VERSE 2
A man called me on my telephone, he was working for the I.R.S.
He may take everything I own but my soul he can’t possess.
As long as I have fish to catch and fruit trees all around.
As long as I have water and air, nothing going to bring me down.
BRIDGE
I’m letting go I turned my life around.
I’m letting go, Nothing going to bring me down.
