When You're Cool (The Sun Shines All The Time)

(album: Still In Your Dreams - 1988)

Saturday night on Beale Street
The old man's playing the blues
He made the guitar talk he did the duckwalk
Two-tone wing tipped shoes

He wore midnight black sunglasses
The hippest I've ever seen
The man wasn't blind he was giving the eye
To every little sweet young thing

I stepped over and I asked him why
He wore his sunglasses late at night
He said when you're cool boy the sun shines all the time

When you're cool the sun shines all the time
You can shuffle right through that rainstorm
And don't you pay it no never mind
It's got a lot to do with the attitude
Of leaving the blues behind
When you're cool boy the sun shines all the time

I went out and found me some wrap arounds
I wear 'em both day and night
Just my size polarized
The future is looking bright

I'm beginning to see the good side
Of everything that comes my way
Hey stepping out of the shadow of doubt
The clouds have rolled away

So put on a new frame of mind
And everything will work out fine
When you're cool boy the sun shines all the time
When you're cool the sun shines all the time

Well you can shuffle right through that rainstorm
But don't you pay it no never mind
It's got a lot to do with your attitude
Of leaving the blues behind

When you're cool boy the sun shines all the time
When you're cool boy the sun shines all the time, yeah
