Lordy

Hey, Lord.

The night is friendly,

The stars are winkin',

My sleepy-headed baby's eyes are blinkin,'

I hold him in my arms and sit here thinking,

Lordy! What a sweet world.

The night is friendly,

With voices croonin',

And gals and fellows in the shadows spoonin',

And clouds that open up to let the moon in,

Lordy! What a sweet world.

Now, I ain't callin' this life perfect,

But I am thanking my maker above,

Because for everything

That you don't like,

There's a million little things that you love, oooh.

A bell is chimin',

To toll the hour,

The sky is dripping light on every livin' flower,

It like to drown us in a silver shower,

Lordy! What a sweet world.

I'm so happy,

Happy!

Happy to be livin',

Yes sir!

Livin' on a friendly night,

On a friendly night,

In a friendly world,

In a friendly world.

My heart is happy,

Thanks to the Lord!
