An Attitude of Gratitude Songtext
von Jimmy Buffett

Bully in the playground, where am I gonna play?
Found a better playground half a block away
Made a little song up called a little rhyme
An attitude of gratitude will do it every time

An attitude of gratitude when stuff has got you down
Can get you satisfied-itude and turn your world around
An attitude of gratitude, hooray, for what′s okay
Say, "Thank you" with infactitude and it's a brand-new day

Now daddy′s in the doghouse, mama's up a tree
But I've got abuelita looking after me
Made myself a sandwich, a little P and J
An attitude of gratitude can chase the clouds away


An attitude of gratitude, that′s what it′s all about
That no-hope-to-be-had-atude is sure to wear you out
An attitude of gratitude, hooray, for what's okay
Say, "Thank you" with infactitude, and it′s a brand-new day

Everything's a dollar, a dollar, 25
Haven′t got a dollar, but I'm glad to be alive
I stole a look at Jane and she stole a look at me
An attitude of gratitude is absolutely free

They say this is the showdown, they say it′s us or them
They just can't see that us and they were relatives and friends
I made a little song up, put it on the charts
Says, "Come on, people, everybody open up your hearts"

An attitude of gratitude when push has come to shove
Eliminates combatitude and changes fear to love
An attitude of gratitude, hooray, for what's okay
Say, "Thank you" with infactitude, and it′s a brand-new day
