It's Alright (Mikka Grytviken)
When I was a chile, I was so cheerful
It's Alright, I used to keep smiling 'til the night
When I was, I used to shout,
it's alright, I used to keep smiling 'til the night
And I jumped with the grasshopers
Everyday, everynight
And I sang with the master criket
Everyday, everynight
And I flew with the little birds
Everyday, everynight
And I swam with the river fishes
Everyday, everynight
When I was a chile, I was inquiring
It's alright, I want to grasp how is the life
When I was a chile, I used to shout
It's alright, I wanna grasp how is the life
And I jumped with the grasshopers
Everyday, everynight
And I sang with the master criket
Everyday, everynight
And I flew with the little birds
Everyday, everynight
And I swam with the river fishes
Everyday, everynight
And I jumped with the grasshopers
Everyday, everynight
And I sang with the master criket
Everyday, everynight
And I flew... with the little birds
And I swam... with the river fishes
Everyday !
Everynight !!!
Everyday !
Everynight !!!
… It's Alright …

Summertime, and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high
Oh, your daddy's rich and your ma is good-lookin'
So hush little baby, Don't you cry
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
And you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky
But 'til that morning, there ain't nothin' can harm you
With Daddy and Mammy standin' by
Summertime, and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high
Oh, your daddy's rich and your ma is good-lookin'
So hush little baby, Don't you cry
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
And you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky
But 'til that morning, there ain't nothin can harm you
With Daddy and Mammy standin' by
Standin' by

Looking out on the morning rain
I used to feel so uninspired
And when I knew I had to face another day
Lord, it made me feel so tired
Before the day I met you, life was so unkind
But you're the key to my peace of mind
'Cause you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman
When my soul was in the lost and found
You came along, to claim it
I didn't know just what was wrong with me
'Til your kiss helped me name it
Now I'm no longer doubtful of what I'm living for
And if I make you happy I don't need to do more
'Cause you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman
Bridge
Oh, baby, what you done to me?
You make me feel so good inside
And I just wanna be close to you
You make me feel so alive
You make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman
You make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman

If I ever leave you, baby
You can say I told you so
And if I ever hurt you
You know, I hurt myself as well
Is that any way for a man to carry on
Do you think I want my loved one gone
Said I love you
More than you'll ever know
More than you'll ever know
When I wasn't making much money
You know where my paycheck went
You know, I brought it home to you, baby
And I never spent a red cent
Is that any way for a man to carry on
Do you think I want my loved one gone
Said I love you
More than you'll ever know, yeah
More than you'll ever know
Now listen to this
I'm not trying to be just any kind of man
No, I ain't
I'm just trying to be somebody
You can love, trust and understand
I know, I know, I know that I can be
A part of you that no one else could see, yeah
But I gotta hear you say
I got to hear you say
It's alright
I'm only flesh and blood
But I can be anything that you demand
I can be King of everything
Or just a tiny grain of sand
Now tell me
Is that anyway for a man to carry on
Do you think that I want my loved one gone
I love you
More than you'll ever know
I said I love you
I love you, I love you, hey
Don't want nobody else but you

If you are a sailor,
A soldier, or marine,
Well Jody's got your woman
When you're not on the scene.
No need to worry
And to get all uptight.
Jody's treatin' her good tonight.
All you other fellas
Just treat your woman right.
'Cause Jody's steady hittin'
When you're out of sight.
No need to worry
And to get all uptight.
Jody's treatin' her good tonight.
