  • Every day she takes a morning bath she wets her hair
    Wraps a towel around her as she's heading for the bedroom chair
    It's just another day
    Slipping into stockings, stepping into shoes
    Dipping in the pocket of her raincoat
    It's just another day
    At the office where the papers grow she takes a break
    Drinks another coffe and she finds it hard to stay awake
    It's just another day

    Do do do do do do, it's just another day
    Do do do do do do, it's just another day

    So sad, so sad
    Sometimes she feels so sad
    Alone in her apartment she'd dwell
    Till the man of her dreams come to break the spell
    Ah, stay, don't stand her up
    And he comes and he stays but he leaves the next day
    So sad
    Sometimes she feels so sad

    As she posts another letter to the sound of five
    People gather 'round her and she finds it hard to stay alive
    It's just another day

    Do do do do do do, it's just another day
    Do do do do do do, it's just another day

    So sad, so sad
    Sometimes she feels so sad
    Alone in her apartment she'd dwell
    Till the man of her dreams come to break the spell
    Ah, stay, don't stand her up
    And he comes and he stays but he leaves the next day
    So sad
    Sometimes she feels so sad

    Every day she takes a morning bath she wets her hair
    Wraps a towel around her as she's heading for the bedroom chair
    It's just another day
    Slipping into stockings, stepping into shoes
    Dipping in the pocket of her raincoat
    It's just another day

    Do do do do do do, it's just another day
    Do do do do do do, it's just another day Writer/s: Linda McCartney, Paul James McCartney

  • Suzi from Maryland UsaWhen I first heard this song, it touched a cord in my heart, even though the woman in the song had a life nothing like mine. To me it felt hopeful. I was confident that she would come to notice the lyrical rhythm of the small things in her life and appreciate their music. Now that I've I have had some lonely times where my does seem to resemble hers, I've found it very comforting.
