John Winston Ono Lennon, MBE (9 October 1940 – 8 December 1980) was an English musician and singer-songwriter who rose to worldwide fame as one of the founder members of The Beatles, one of the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed acts in the history of popular music. Together with Paul McCartney, he formed one of the most celebrated songwriting partnerships of the 20th century.
Born and raised in Liverpool, Lennon became involved as a teenager in the skiffle craze; his first band, The Quarrymen, evolved into The Beatles in 1960. As the group disintegrated towards the end of the decade, Lennon embarked on a solo career that produced the critically acclaimed albums John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band and Imagine, and iconic songs such as "Give Peace a Chance" and "Imagine". After his marriage to Yoko Ono in 1969, he changed his name to John Ono Lennon. Lennon disengaged himself from the music business in 1975 to devote time to raising his infant son Sean, but re-emerged with Ono in 1980 with the new album Double Fantasy. He was murdered three weeks after its release.
The bills are late, the grass is brown
Got the only porch that's falling down
In the neighborhood
But it's all good
Work is slow, could use more pay
Ain't no hero gonna save the day
Like in Hollywood
But it's all good
'Cause it's a sunny day, I got a beer
Gonna drink it sitting here in the shade
I'm as happy as a man could be
As long as you're here next to me, I got it made
The cable's out, the screen door's stuck
And that old truck, it doesn't start right up
The way it should
But it's all good
'Cause it's a sunny day, I got a beer
Gonna drink it sitting here in the shade
I'm as happy as a man could be
As long as you're here next to me, I got it made
I don't get blue, I don't get mad
If I've learned one thing from the year I've had
It's even if it all goes bad
It's all good
