[Verse 1]
I wake up early
Sun on the floor
A full cup waiting
And a knock at the door
Bread in the toaster
Bills on the side
Still I move gentle
With a grin too wide
Feet on the sidewalk
Heart on the high
I count my blessings
As I pass them by
[Pre-Chorus]
Take what shines
Hold it close
Let the good inside
Run the show
[Chorus]
Yodel-ay-hey
Day by day
I keep my joy
And guard my way
Yodel-ay-hey
Come what may
Blessed in the light
I live that way
[Verse 2]
I’ve seen the shadow
Try on my name
I’ve felt that cold breath
Coming with the rain
I spit that worry
Out with a laugh
Turn my face forward
And I don’t look back
Mouth full of praise now
Hands in the air
Every small miracle
Already there
[Pre-Chorus]
Take what shines
Hold it close
Let the good inside
Run the show
[Chorus]
Yodel-ay-hey
Day by day
I keep my joy
And guard my way
Yodel-ay-hey
Come what may
Blessed in the light
I live that way
[Bridge]
Beatbox it out
Kick in my chest
I choose the sunrise
Over the rest
Harmonica cry
Then it turns gold
I walk with gladness
I’m rich in soul
[Chorus]
Yodel-ay-hey
Day by day
I keep my joy
And guard my way
Yodel-ay-hey
Come what may
Blessed in the light
I live that way
[Yodel Outro]
Yodel-ay-hey
Yodel-ay-hey
Blessed in the light
I live that way
