We really don't have it that bad
But we know some people do
We catch ourselves complaining sometimes
Feeling down and blue
What do we have to complain about
When we look around us and see
A roof over our heads, shirts on our backs
And some jingle in our jeans
Life is good
Even when things aren't going
Quite the way we know they should
Knock on wood, life is good
There might be a stack of bills to pay
Sitting on our kitchen table
We'll get around to them one by one
As long as we are able
Speaking of that, hey, we've been blessed
Each and every day
And I hope it takes forever
To count the many ways
Life is good
Even when things aren't going
Quite the way we know they should
Knock on wood, life is good
Things ain't bad
If you're living and breathing
No, things ain't bad
If you're learning and teaching that
Life is good
Even when things aren't going
Quite the way we know they should
Knock on wood, life is good
