Ahhhh
(whistling)
To all those people living in their flats not so pristine.
Who look up from the alleyways at the sky that we've both seen.
For some i now they see it from a different point of view.
The red doors painted black the sky is grey not baby blue.
So lighten up have a cup of my happy golden drink
It will taste strong to begin with, but you'll get used to it i think.
It'll wash away your sorrows and soak up your concern.
Only trouble when you wake up… not a single tables turned.
But it's alright…. it's alright…. it's alright….
(whistling)
So if you're a bit unhappy or you're slightly depressed
Just humble on to this song i wrote, relieve some of your stress
Cause when i sing the chorus there's one thing i know for sure
A nice clean shot of whiskey is my recommended cure
So lighten up have a cup of my happy golden drink
