It feels alright, the grass is high
Live your life before it passes by

Travel the road of the country side
From city to city we’re taking a ride

World of sunshine, bright shades of gold
It’s time to be happy for the young and old
World of sunshine, world of sunshine

Come with me, there’s so much to see
There’s people to meet and places you should be

When you get tired you can always find
Hey, hey, hey, a mile to rest, carry a sign

World of sunshine, bright shades of gold
It’s time to be happy for the young and old

Travel the road of the country side
From city to city, we’re taking a ride

World of sunshine, bright shades of gold
It’s time to be happy for the young and old

World of sunshine, bright shades of gold
It’s time to be happy for the young and old

World of sunshine, bright shades of gold
