about

Written 2015, Lafayette, LA, - Louisa Street

lyrics

Feel the morning; feel the morning nice and cool
Rise and shine, babe; oh, rise and shine now, baby blue
Listen, baby; it's a good day for you

I woke you up; it's what I do
I packed your lunch; I tied your shoes
I slapped you back a time or two
Said, "get in boy; I'll take you to school"
It's true; it's a good day for you

Hear the blue birds; hear the blue birds as they sing
See the young girls; see the young girl, pretty thing
It's a good day; it's a good day, don't you think?

I told you once; take my advice
I've suffered hard for all my life
But it ain't the way it's supposed to be
To wander lost, so aimlessly
Its' true; there's a high road for you

I picked you up; I took you home
Said wherever it is you wanna roam
Or whatever it is you wanna do
You set the course; you keep it true
And you'll see; what you want will come to you

There you go, boy; there you go, boy; you're on your way
Take it easy; lord, take it easy as they say
Don't you worry; don't you worry, it's your day

I tucked you in; said, "go to sleep"
We said your prayers; now do not weep
I told you that it'd be alright
Don't worry, son; we'll survive the night
And it's true; morning's coming, coming soon

Step on back boy; don't you go get in your own way
Take it easy; lord, take it easy like it's play
Let it lead you; let it lead you as it may

Reece Sullivan Lafayette, Louisiana

Originally from Arkansas, and now in Lafayette, LA, I play the surrounding areas regularly. Over the course of the years, I've reinvented myself musically many times: piano to guitar, classical to art rock, art rock to folk, flat picking to finger-picking, solely songwriting to performing. My latest incarnation has me playing out often, sometimes touring, and writing and recording consistently. ... more
