From the recording Working on a Good Time
Just in time for summer 2023! I'm thrilled to be pre-releasing "Working on a Good Time" for a limited time here on my website before releasing it to popular digital streaming services. Feel free to donate as little or a much as you would like. It's listeners like you that understand more than anyone that music creators spend countless hours and money to create and record music. Streaming services pay music creators fractions of a penny for each stream. We hope that you'll find this song [beautifully produced by my friend Donny Brewer] to be worth much more. My wish is that you'll love this song as much as Stephen and I did writing and recording it.
Cheers, Dan
Lyrics
Workin on a Good Time
By Dan Sullivan and Stephen McMillen
© 2020
They say it’s “time to suck it up”
Start acting like a grown up
Gotta chase those dimes
Keep grinding the grind
Up and up the ladder climb
I ain’t ready for what they ask
May never be up to the task
But I will succeed
Doing as I please
Long as my soul stays free
And that’s fine by me, ‘cause I’m
CHORUS
Working on a good time
Working chasing that sunshine
Try to catch the rays
Ride some waves
Making everyday a holiday
I’m working on what I hold dear
Working with no net, no fear
Working many things
Like bending strings
As I sing my next rhyme
Oh, yeah, I’m working on a good time
Everybody has their dream
About who they want to be
Do you have a clue?
What’s your point of view?
To thine own self be true
I know I’m not a child no more
And we never know what’s in store
Though all the world’s a stage
Don’t want to act my age
I’m always ready to turn the page
And that’s why I say
CHORUS
Working on a good time
Working chasing that sunshine
Try to catch the rays
Ride some waves
Making everyday a holiday
I’m working on what I hold dear
Working with no net, no fear
Working many things
Like bending strings
As I sing my next rhyme
Oh, yeah, I’m working on a good time
BRIDGE
And if I had the chance to somehow change my path
I wouldn’t change a anything cuz I’m happy where I’m at
CHORUS
Working on a good time
Working chasing that sunshine
Try to catch the rays
Ride some waves
Making everyday a holiday
I’m working on what I hold dear
Working with no net, no fear
Working many things
Like bending strings
As I sing my next rhyme
Oh, yeah, I’m working on a good time
