Have a Good Day

Yeah, Colton, he turned eight years old

Three very short long weeks ago

And just how long he'll be around

The doctors, they don't even know

A Nerf ball football in the yard

Daddy throws it easy 'cause walkin's hard

Sometimes for living there ain't no cure

And tomorrow damn sure ain't for sure

So, what do you say?

Let's have a good day, yeah

So way down south from Mexico

Ran a barefoot boy, skin and bones

A mission group from the States came through

To hand out clothes and build a school

Someone gave that kid some bread

He didn't keep it for himself instead

He broke that piece, too small for one

And gave both to his brothers some

So, what do you say? Yeah

Let's have a good day

I'm gonna hold my kids a little stronger

I'm gonna kiss my wife a little longer

Well, Kenny, he's a fearless man

He lost his eyesight in a hand

Standing up for his Uncle Sam

Fighting in that desert sand

His wife and kids still struggle when

He has those nightmares now and then

He swears even if they never end

He would do it all again

So, what do you say?

Let's have a good day

Yeah, Colton, he was only eight

Said he saw angels, couldn't wait

To fly him home to a better place

With a smile on his face he said

What do you say?

Fly me away

Let's have a good day

Let's have a good day, oh

Oh, let's have a good day, oh

Let's have a good day
