It was a beautiful day   And the sun was a-shinin' high   Not a cloud up above   It was a good day to die      And I got my chores done   I got the horses fed   I took a swim in the pond   Just to clear out my head      It was a good day to die   It was a good day to die   And Lord knows I gave it my hardest try   But it's a good day to die      It was a beautiful day   And now the moon is a-shinin' bright   And I got my boots on   It's a good day to die      Ohhh, it was a good day to die   It was a good day to die      It'll all be good by and by   Mmm, but it's a good day to die   Ohhh, it was a good day to die   Ohhh, it's a good day to die   And it'll all be good by and by   Mmm, it was a good day to die
