Have A Nice Day
Bing Crosby · Other Songs - Bing Crosby
I hope it doesn't land on you
When the truth is found
I hope it will be true to you.
All I'm sayin' is have a nice day
I hope it doesn't rain on your parade
An' when it all comes down
I hope it doesn't land on you.
When I woke up this mornin'
I fell out of my bed
I burnt my toast an' coffee
An' bumped my achin' head.
The radio was playin'
But it was so hard to hear
The words that they were sayin'
With my elbow in my ear.
When it all comes down
I hope it doesn't land on you
When the truth is found
I hope it will be true to you.
All I'm sayin' is have a nice day
I hope it doesn't rain on your parade
An' when it all comes down
I hope it doesn't land on you.
I believe in Jesus
An' what the Bible said
An' I am fairly certain
He had himself a heavy head.
He stared the lyin' people
So bad, they hung him dead
An' they never even listened
To what he really said.
He said, "When it all comes down
I hope it doesn't land on you
When the truth is found
I hope it will be true to you."
"All I'm sayin' is have a nice day
I hope it doesn't rain on your parade
An' when it all comes down
I hope it doesn't land on you"
