Verse 1 Sittin' out on the front deck, Coffee mug in hand. Smell of burnin' toast, Birds are chirpin', some are squawkin', What a way to start the day. Beautiful early mornin', Mist lifts from the valleys below. Mountains dressed in blues and greens, Crisp fresh air begins to flow. Verse 2 Those cheeky magpies are back, Perched up on the deck rail near me. Singin' out their joyful song, Me joinin' in and singin' along. Not everyone knows this kind of joy. Chorus Joy in the morning light, Rhythm of the country. Absolute delight, Grounds me for each day. Peace that money just can't buy, Underneath this open sky. Joy... In the morning light, Grounds me for each day. Verse 3 No dogs barkin' this mornin', They're happy just to lay in the sun. The only sounds in my little patch of country Are peace and contentment as one. Birdsong drifts into my brain, Washin' every care away. Not everyone knows this kind of joy. Chorus Joy in the morning light, Rhythm of the country. Absolute delight, Grounds me for each day. Peace that money just can't buy, Underneath this open sky. Joy... In the morning light, Grounds me for each day. Outro As long as morning greets my eyes, And birds still sing from every tree, This peaceful little country life Is where I'll always long to be.
