Lyrics
Was there ever a day when you felt so high
and your feet so light you could touch the sky
was there ever a day when you felt so kissed by the light of the sun?
CHORUS:
Gonna knock it out of the ballpark today
Gonna knock it out of the ball park today
Gonna ride up high with the eagles,
drop my bag of blues and seize the day
Well the hell of it is, it's a heavenly day
by the sweat of the brow, I'm gonna make it great.
and the thrill of it is, there is not one thing gonna get me down.
Gonna knock it out of the ballpark today
Gonna knock it out of the ball park today
Gonna ride up high with the eagles,
drop my bag of blues and seize the day!
