LYRICS:

1. "I Gotta Day"
I gotta day full of sunshine and flowers.
I gotta day and I know it won’t shower on me.

Look at the sky, where the gold sun is smiling.
Look at the girl who is happy and finally free.

Once in a while, I feel like I’m flying.
Once in a while, I know who I’m trying to be.

Look at the sun and the warm breeze, it’s blowing.
Carrying me to the places I’m going to be.
Look at me!

 

2. "A Little Neck in the Woods"
Step by step, I will entice her.
Step by step, I couldn’t be nicer
To Grandma.

Step by step, I’ll be the winner.
Step by step, we’ll meet for dinner
Me and Grandma.  

In the woods!
In the woods!
In the woods!
In the woods!
