Happy Good Morning Blues Good day to you, fat balloon man May you always have air You sing a song everybody can believe

Good day to you, uncle tom cat Out to drink the whole world You carry a tune for nobody but yourself

Good day to you, herr policeman May your boots always fit Someday you'll find a song you can believe

Good morning good people The sun is long sailing The only clouds you see Are carried within- Soon they'll be blown all away Wind gonna rise and blow those clouds away Wind gonna rise and blow your blues away Your sun gonna shine on my back door someday
