Lee, Peggy - It's A Good Day Lyrics






Yes, it's a good day for singing a song,
and it's a good day for moving along;
Yes, it's a good day, how could anything be wrong,
A good day from morning' till night

Yes, it's a good day for shining your shoes,
and it's a good day for losing the blues;
Everything to gain and nothing' to lose,
A good day from morning' till night

I said to the Sun, "Good morning sun
Rise and shine today"
You know you've gotta get going
If you're gonna make a showin'
And you you've got the right of way.

'Cause it's a good day for paying your bills;
And it's a good day for curing your ills,
So take a deep breath and throw away the pills;
'Cause it's a good day from morning' till night.

  13. B.... M....

    Flawless vocal artistry from one of the finest singers and performers ever.

    I'm actually here because I work at a lawn mower shop. And this is one of the songs an ad played for snow blowers. Should be on one of Ariens snow blower ads.

    A good day from morning' till night

    Yes, it's a good day for shining your shoes,
    and it's a good day for losing the blues;
    Everything to gain and nothing' to lose,
    A good day from morning' till night

    I said to the Sun, "Good morning sun
    Rise and shine today"
    You know you've gotta get going
    If you're gonna make a showin'
    And you you've got the right of way.

    'Cause it's a good day for paying your bills;

  62. Q.... C....

    This is Jeri Southern singing, not Peggy Lee, and it's on the album The Very Thought of You, Decca: 1951-57. Love the song.

  63. A.... A....

    Dead to me brought me here

  64. S.... A....

    Who’s else is here from dead to me ?

  65. D.... B....

    1948 w/Benny Goodman. Recorded at Capitol Melrose Ave. on magnetic paper tape in Studio A on a brand-spanking new Ampex 200A @ 30 IPS. Les Paul guitar solo by Dave Barbour, who co-wrote the song with Lee. The era of high fidelity audio recording had begun...as you can easily hear.

  66. D.... A....

    Dead to me sent me here. What a show!

  67. d.... C....

    Does anybody know what you would call that sound effect they do at the end of the song, where it sounds like an echo fading away? I'm curious to know if there is a technical term for that sound effect.

    d.... C....

    Put the vocal in the echo chamber and fade from live mic to the chamber mic on the tail out of the vocal. They had a so-so one at Capitol Melrose Ave....the truly great one is in Cspitol's Studio A in the new building on Vine St. built in 1954.

    d.... C....

    ...and remember...this was all done LIVE..no "tracks" until 1950.

  68. T.... ....

    Z.... B....

    I'm here because of Agent Carter. This song was under the scene when she kicks ass in the dinner.

    Z.... B....

    here because I heard this song first on U Turn (the 1997 movie, recommended)- at that time I had to go to the local library and look for the OST. But it was worth every minute of it :-D ...and your post made me curious to watch Dead to Me :-)
