[Queen]
Spent all night in a crowded cell
Woke up on the floor
One thing Sonja, sure as hell
I won't be back no more
Me and Fleet are headed home today
Me and Fleet are headed home to stay
Ain't the weather fine
Ain't a cloud in sight
It's a lovely day to be out of jail
How that sun do shine
Like a golden light
What a lovely day to be out of jail
I been in the shade
If you no what I mean
[Sonja]
Girl I know what you mean
[Sonja + Queen]
Thanks to legal aid
[Queen]
I am back on the scene
[Sonja]
Welcome back to the scene
[Queen]
If the sky turns gray
That'll be okay
I don't care if there'll be thunder and hail
Cause the fact remains
Even if it rains
[Sonja + Queen]
It's a lovely day to be out of jail
[Queen]
Winter ain't no thing
No I don't give a damn
[Sonja]
When you don't give a damn
[Queen]
Every day is spring
[Sonja]
Every day is spring
[Queen]
When you're sprung from the slam
This morning I could hardly wait
Till it was time to journey through that iron gate
I threw back my head
Looked at the sky and I said
Ain't the weather fine
Ain't a cloud in sight
It's a lovely day to be out of jail
How that sun do shine
Like a golden light
What a lovely day to be out of jail
You won't see me frown
When the sun's out of sight
Cause I'm getting down with my daddy tonight
Everything's okay
Far as I can see
It's a lovely day
When you're finally free
