It's great to be alive
To work from 9 to 5
To have a piece of land to farm
It's great to be alive
To have a car to drive
And have your baby on your arm
In spite of bills and other minor ills
Somehow we manage to survive
It's great to be in love
To have a roof above
And watch the little ones arrive
Your own descendants
Deductible dependents
It's great to be alive
ย
It's great to be here and kickin'
To hear an alarm clock tickin'
It's really a kick to belt to the chickens
On a little old farm
It's something to work and strive
Then take your girl to a drive
To know that at five you're really alive
She'll be holdin' your arm
Even though the bills just pile up by the million weight
We manage to find the proper pills to lose a little ill substrate
That really is great
It's great to be in love
To have that roof above
To watch, especially, with the little ones arrivin'
And all that jive
Your own descendants
Deductible dependents
It's great, it's great to be alive
We're livin'
Thanksgivin'
It's great to be alive
