It seems that my life’s going nowhere fast,
Trying hard to shed my crooked past,
But just the other day I was dancing with my cat,
Perfectly content with the things that I still have,
I am all right
I am all right
Look at me and look at what I have
There’s nothing you can take away from my stash
You can even try to dig around my trash
I may not have much and not much cash
But I got me and that’s all right
That’s the reason why my future looks so bright
I’m out of work and struggling to get by,
Money problems escalating high,
I may be feeling low but my spirits are still high
I’m content enough to just spread my wings and fly
I am all right
I am all right
Look at me, my problems bog me down
yet I’m floating three feet off the ground
there’s much more to life than to wait and drown
‘Cause I got me and that’s all right
That’s the reason why my future looks so bright
