Our village awakens Just as the sun starts to rise We spring to our feet and get ready too greet And you'll notice we're rubbing our eyes I go fishing and harvest my garden I geather what nature will give As I go to the market on Sundays' I earn enough money to live A good life, a good life A good life, a good life I go down to the taverns When Saturday night comes along I am friends with the best band around And they pay me to sing a few songs It's a jovial bunch that is gathered They drink, and they dance, and they cheer As they all sing along There is really no question That what we have here Is a good life, a good life A good life, a good life I am blessed with all I could ask for A simple life without much care But I guess it could be even better With someone with whom I could share A good life, a good life Oohh oohh A good life, a good life
