Lyrics

Why, you wanna tell me how to live my life?
Who, are you to tell me if it's black or white?
Mama, can you hear me? try to understand
Is innocence the difference between a boy and a man
My daddy lived a lie, it's just the price that he paid
Sacrificed his life, just slaving away

Oh,if there is one thing I hang onto
That gets me through the night
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to
I'm gonna live my life
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice
Standing on the ledge and
Show the wind how to fly
When the world gets in my face
I say, have a nice day
Have a nice day-ay-ay

Take a look around you, nothing's what it seems
We're living in a broken home of hopes and dreams
Let me be the first to shake a helping hand
Anybody, brave enough to take a stand
I've knocked on every door, on every dead-end street
Looking for forgiveness and what's left to believe

Oh, if there is one thing I hang onto
That gets me through the night
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to
I'm gonna live my life
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice
Standing on the ledge, and show the wind how to fly
When the world gets in my face
I say, have a nice day
Have a nice day-ay-ay

(Guitar solo)

Oh oh , if there is one thing I hang onto
That gets me through the night
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to
I'm gonna live my life
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice
Standing on the ledge,and show the wind how to fly
When the world gets in my face
I say, have a nice day
Have a nice day-ay-ay
(In the background)
(Have a nice day)

When the world keeps trying to drag me down
Gotta raise my hands, gonna stand my ground
I say, hey, have a nice day-ay-ay
Have a nice day!
