A very good friend of mine 
Told me something the other day 
I'd like to pass it on to you 
'Cause I believe what he said to be true 

He said we're here for a good time 
Not a long time (not a long time) 
So have a good time 
The sun can't shine every day

And the sun is shinin' in this rainy city 
And the sun is shinin', ooh, isn't it a pity 
And every year has its share of tears 
And every now and then it's gotta rain

We're here for a good time 
Not a long time 
So have a good time 
The sun can't shine every day

And the sun is shinin' in this rainy city 
And the sun is shinin', ooh, isn't it a pity 
And every year has its share of tears 
And every now and then it's gotta rain

We're here for a good time 
Not a long time 
So have a good time 
The sun can't shine every day (sun can't shine every day)

We're here for a good time (here for a good time)
Not a long time (not a long time)
So have a good time (have a good time)
The sun can't shine every day (the sun can't shine every day)

(The sun can't shine) We're here for a good time (we're here for a good time)
Not a long time (not a long, not a long time)
So have a good time (have a good time)
The sun can't shine every day (the sun can't, the sun can't shine, the sun can't shine)

So have a good time (have a good time)
The sun can't shine every day (the sun can't shine every day)

We're here for a good time 
Not a long time (not a long time)
So have a good time (have a good time)
The sun can't shine every day (I know, I know, I know)

We're here for a good time (we're here for a good time)
Not a long time (not a long, long, long, long, long time)
So have a good time
The sun can't shine every day
