[Verse 1]
My papa told me, "Son you've gotta grow up
Get out of bed, get a job, go make your family proud
Don't ask for money, pay the bills like I did
'Cause you're no longer a kid, go solve it"

[Chorus]
I told him I like it better when the sun shines
Give me those good times then I'll be alright
I tell you what you better not be bringing bad vibes
Leave your troubles behind then I'll be alright
I'll be alright
Give me those good times then I'll be alright

[Verse 2]
My mama told me, "Son, just go live your life
Go on a date get a wife
A couple kids, a dog, a house, you'll be fine
Just look at all your friends they're settling down
And you're still stumbling around, go solve it"

[Chorus]
I told her I like it better when the sun shines
Give me those good times then I'll be alright
I tell you what you better not be bringing bad vibes
Leave your troubles behind then I'll be alright
I'll be alright
Give me those good times then I'll be alright
I like it better when the sun shines
Give me those good times then I'll be alright
I tell you what you better not be bringing bad vibes
Leave your troubles behind then I'll be alright
I'll be alright
I'll be alright
Give me those good times then I'll be alright
