What a Day

from Empathy Project by Caroline Ferrante

/

lyrics

V 1:
You work twelve hours a day
You worry all night
You try to make ends meet
You fight the fight
And all the while, the cheaters seem to prosper
When times get tough, you tighten your belt
You try to make the very best of the hand you’re dealt
You eat rice and beans
Cancel that cable TV, oh

CH:
The clouds will part and you’ll see the light of day- uh huh
You’ll lasso that moon and ride the stars with a
Yipee-kay yippee-kay-ay-ay
So you don’t give up
You run that race
You’re gonna wipe that smirk right off their face
“What a day, What a day, What a day”

Instrumental

V 2:
You treat people fair
With all your might
They stab you in the back and sleep at night
Treat ‘em right even when they do wrong, Oh ho
Time will put and end to all their schemes
You’ll awake and find all your dreams
Are finally there, right within your reach, Oh ho

CH:
The clouds will part and you’ll see the light of day- uh huh
You’ll lasso that moon and ride the stars with a
Yipee-kay yippee-kay-ay-ay
So you don’t give up
You run that race
You’re gonna wipe that smirk right off their face
“What a day, What a day, What a day”


Bridge:
You’ll lay back
And say that
This was a gift
You’re stronger
No longer
Afraid of come-what-may
‘Cause it’s your day

Instrumental/Scat

Chorus:
The clouds will part and you’ll see the light of day- uh huh
You’ll lasso that moon and ride the stars with a
Yipee-kay yippee-kay-ay-ay
So you don’t give up
You run that race
You’re gonna wipe that smirk right off their face
“What a day, What a day, What a day”



Outro:
So roll up your sleeves
It’ll be OK
Daylight’s coming
And you will say
“What a day, What a day, What a…”
What a Day, What a Day
What a Day, What a Day
What a Day
Yo-di-lay-hee
Yipee-kay yippee-kay-ay-ay
Hmmmm
