Let The Good Times Roll

Heard this before? “Life is what you make it” So very true, we are all captains of our own vessel We are the ones that map out our course The winds of life are not always in our favour But the happiness we receive is much more gratifying Than always having things handed to us on a silver platter We appreciate even the smallest gestures of love and kindness Aside from the lunatic fringe, we are all cut from the same cloth That one percent cause all the problems For the ninety-nine percent of normal folks like us All we want is to get from point A to point B With love and the least amount of hassle So my advice is, just let the good times roll One day at a time and all that stuff
