Lyrics

Just bring me the sunshine with your smile
I'll be okay
No matter if the rain falls
When you call, I'll be okay
Just bring me the sunshine with your smile
I'll be okay
No matter if the rain falls
When you call, I'll be okay
Oh, it's gonna be alright
I know it's gonna be okay
It's gonna be alright
With you I know I'll be okay
It's gonna be alright
I know it's gonna be okay
It's gonna be alright
With you I know I'll be okay
Just bring me the sunshine
(When love brings happiness)
With your smile
(With you I'll do my best)
I'll be okay
No matter if the rain falls
(No matter if the rain keeps fallin')
When you call
(As long as I hear your voice then)
I'll be okay
Just bring me the sunshine
(When love brings happiness)
(With you I'll do my best)
Your smile
I'll be okay
No matter if the rain falls
(No matter if the rain keeps fallin')
When you call
(As long as I hear your voice then)
I'll be okay
It's gonna be alright
I know it's gonna be okay
It's gonna be alright
With you I know I'll be okay
It's gonna be alright
I know it's gonna be okay
It's gonna be alright
With you I know I'll be okay
Can be miles ahead, miles behind
I don't care long as I'm with you
(Oh, it's gonna be alright)
Can be miles ahead, miles behind
I don't care long as I'm with you
Gonna be with you, I know I'm gonna be okay
Can be miles ahead, miles behind
I don't care long as I'm with you, you, woah
Can be miles ahead, miles behind (Yeah)
I don't care long as I'm with you (Yeah)
Gonna be all
Can be miles ahead, miles behind
(I'll be okay, I'll be okay, I'll be okay )
(Oh-oh, alright)
I don't care long as I'm with you (Long as I have you)
Can be miles ahead, miles behind
I don't care long as I'm with you
(Have you)
Be alright
Be okay
Be alright
Oh-ooh-oh
Okay
People think of jazz musicians and they pigeonhole us
Is like, just jazz musician
How much of that do you think is like, musicians fault?
Like cats started playing for other musicians
And tryna be this one thing, just tryna be Charlie Parker
Or just tryna, you know what I mean?
People are just so brainwashed and they don't know
I don't think people know what's good and what's not good anymore
People think popular even if it's wack
Is like what sets the, sets the pace of music nowadays
It's like oh this is hot, and it's wack
98% of the stuff I hear on the radio is wack
90% of the musicians you hear playing is wack
You know 'cause there's no bar anymore
You know it used to be the bar was so high
And people had greater appreciation for music
It's up to the a big wigs, I guess
'Cause they're, they're the ones that do the programming
Because people don't really think anymore, not much
If you have music like that to make people think
Wow they wouldn't know what to do with the system
You know people just follow the other person
So it's not really like a lot of
It's more like a lot of foulness
The best thing you could do for people I think is just be honest man
Yo, we gotta do something man
