It Was A Very Good Day (Zich Karel)

It was a very good day One of them kind And I´m still feelin´ fine Everythin´ started Way back in June Nineteen-forty-nine That´s when I was born And I don´t remember Nothing from these days As it is now I´m another member Of the human race Now I´m here ever since I got The ticket for a show Sometimes livin´ on the highest spot And sometimes pretty low Now I´m here with my ups and downs I don´t ask for a loan Among the other clowns I try to be my own It was a very good day When I saw the world As either good or bad And I never knew What´s there for takin´ And what´s not to be had So that´s where I started From complete zero Believin´ in my fate Up to this day I´m not a hero But I try to play it straight Now I´m here ever since I got The ticket for a show Sometimes livin´ on the highest spot And sometimes pretty low Now I´m here with my ups and downs I don´t ask for a loan Among the other clowns I try to be my own It was a very good day No one but me Knows the ways of my own life Since that July forty-nine I´m glad to be alive Now I´m here ever since I got The ticket for a show Sometimes livin´ on the highest spot And sometimes pretty low Now I´m here with my ups and downs I don´t ask for a loan Among the other clowns I try to be my own
