A LOVELY DAY TO BE OUT OF JAIL

Ain't the weather fine
Ain't a cloud in sight
It's a lovely day to be outta jail
How that sun do shine
Like a golden light
What a lovely day to be outta jail

I been in the shade
If you know what I mean
Thanks to legal aid
I am back on the scene

If the sky turns gray
That'll be okay
I don't care if there be
Thunder and hail
'Cause the fact remains
Even if it rains
It's a lovely day to be outta jail
Ever if it rains
It's a lovely day to be outta jail
Winter ain't no thing
No, I don't give a damn
Every day is spring
When you're sprung
From the slam

This morning I could hardly wait
'Til it was time to journey
Through that iron gate
I threw back my head
Looked up at the sky and said...

Ain't the weather fine
Ain't a cloud in sight
It's a lovely day to be outta jail
How that sun do shine
What a lovely day to be outta jail
You won't see me frown
When the sun's outta sight
'Cause I'm getting down
With my baby tonight

Everything's okay
Far as I can see
It's a lovely day
When you're finally free
