Intro: }x4
Verse1:
Why you wanna tell me how to live my life?
Who are you to tell me if it's black or white?
Bridge 1:
Mama, can you hear me? Try to understand
Innocence is the difference between a boy and a man
My daddy lived the lie, its just the price that he paid
Sacrificed his life, just slave it away
Chorus:
Ooh, if there's one thing I hang on to,
It gets me through the night
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,
Im gonna live my life
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge, show the wind how to fly
When the world gets in my face,
I say, Have a Nice Day
Have a Nice Day
Verse 2:
Take a look around you, look its what he sees
We're living in a broken home of hopes and dreams
Bridge 2:
Let me be the first to shake ya helping hand
Everybody, pray enough to take a stand
I knocked on every door, on every dead end street,
Looking for forgiveness, What's left to believe?
Chorus:
Ooh, if there's one thing I hang on to,
It gets me through the night
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,
Im gonna live my life
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge, show the wind how to fly
When the world gets in my face,
I say, Have a Nice Day
Have a Nice Day

Chorus:
Ooh, if there's one thing I hang on to,
It gets me through the night
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,
Im gonna live my life
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge, show the wind how to fly
When the world gets in my face,
I say, Have Nice Day
Have Nice Day
Have Nice Day
(The world keeps trying, to drag me down,
I've gotta raise my hands to stand my ground.
Well I say, Have a Nice Day.)
Have a Nice Day
Have a Nice Day
