SUNNY HOURS
Wonders of the World #2
Well I've strolled across some dance floors
Filled with girls all dressed in red
Pulled my foot from my mouth,
Answer back the things i've said.
Wander through the valley of the shadow of the dead
Stumbled on this old sun dial
Then these words I read...
I only count the sunny hours, brightest hours of day.
I never count the gloomy hours I let them slip away.
And I realize I'm away.
Chorus:
(Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah)
I'm alright y'all.
Alright yall.
Ya wanna be alright you gotta walk tall.
(Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah)
I'm alright y'all.
Alright y'all.
Ya wanna be alright you gotta walk tall.
Ya gotta walk tall, y'all.
(Yeh, yeh, yeh yeh)
Well I woke up in to many beds with girls I didn't know.
I seen lots of brothers at top and I watched them come & go,
Tell me why I'm not dead with them in the valley down below.
I give thanks everyday for these words they save my soul.
I only count the sunny hours, brightest hours of day.
I never count the gloomy hours I let them slip away.
And I realize I'm away.
Chorus
It's like the wise man said relax yourself
when it's movin too fast set it down
when the goin gets tough it gets you goin
if ya really wanna speak then make a sound
keep your eyes on the prize and realize
that the trouble's gonna come in all shapes and sizes
well ya gotta stay strong don't let your knees buckle
ya gotta keep hustlin, keep hustlin, movin, groovin
Let the lovin, Let the lovin come back to me....(4x)
Chorus x2
You gotta walk tall, y'all
Chorus x2
The goin get tough, the tough get goin'
And I'm out.

TRAILER RAS
Right Back #9
(How many of you people are white trash)
Way back in junior high I could have sworn my name was white boy
There was all types of ill shit going down
Between gangsters, punks and cholos, haitians, asians or insane ussos
Well I've got friends black white yellow red and brown
We would sit there by the river and listen to the freeway
Just sit and toke and drink with all my crew no no
Well now when i look back over blue skys and smoke stacks
Well it makes me laugh to think I've made it through
And I'll hear the birds sing when the sun brings out the morning
And theres everything or nothing I can do
When I break into my stash, I'll remember trailer ras
And theres everything or nothing i can do
We would sit there by the river
Listen to the freeway and do the things your no supposed to do
How to jump the fence was the first thing i learned in high school
And I knew this girl that lived just down the street
On the phone the whole day scarin', and when hickeys got boring
The neighborhood was filled with pounds of tweak
We would sit in the recliner, and listen to the TV
And do the things your not supposed to do
Well now when I look back or I see teenagers mack
Well I'll think of all those days I've spent with you
And I'll hear the birds sing when the sun brings out the morning
And there's everything or nothing I can do
When I break into my stash I'll remember trailer ras
And theres everything.....for me to lose
