Woke up just the other day 

fell out of bed and my dog ran away 

car won't start and the weather was cold and gray 



I got stuck in a traffic jam 

My major meeting didn't go as I planned 

looks like it's gonna be another one of those days 



(chorus) 

I got a roof over my head 

someone to love me in a 4 poster bed and 

I can play this here guitar and 

Thank my lucky stars 



Politicians speak and it makes me ill 

People are dying just for a thrill 

maybe it's just evolution gone astray 



The climate's too hot, music's gotten cold 

I'm living like a health nut but I still grow old 

you do what you can on the edge of the Milky Way 



(chorus) 

gonna thank my lucky stars 



wrapped up in the problems of the day 

just remember there's no rewind and no replay 

so don't you worry cause it ain't gonna fix a thing 



(harp) 



Woke up just the other day 

Thought that maybe I'd be ok 

Cause the story I'm been getting ain't written anywhere 



(chorus) 

gonna thank my lucky stars 



(chorus) 

gonna thank my lucky stars 

Thank you stars
