“Beautiful Day” is the opening track and first music video from Red Yarn’s 2016 album ‘Wake Up & Sing‘ (produced by GRAMMY winner Dean Jones at No Parking Studio). Originally written by Red Yarn (aka Andy Furgeson) as an invocation for his preschool visits, “Beautiful Day” adapts the melody of the traditional folk hymn “Thine the Glory” (later adapted as “Hallelujah, I’m a Bum”).
lyrics
The sun has come up
The rooster has crowed
And I’m wide awake
From my head to my toes
My friends are all here
We’re ready to play
Good morning to you
It’s a beautiful day
Good morning getting better
Just get up and see
A good morning to be together
To be you and to be me
Good morning getting better
So wake up and sing
A good morning, we’re together
What more could life bring?
