I Just Want to Celebrate
Pete Rivera Lyrics

One, two, three, four
Starting the song and setting the rhythm

I just want to celebrate another day of livin'
Expressing gratitude for being alive and cherishing each day

I put my faith in the people
Trusting and relying on people

But the people let me down
Experiencing disappointment and betrayal from people

So I turned the other way
Looking for another direction or solution

And I carry on, anyhow
Persisting despite setbacks and challenges

That's why I'm telling you
Explaining the reason for the song

I just want to celebrate, yeah, yeah
Expressing the desire to celebrate and be happy

Had my hand on the dollar bill
Hoping for financial security and success

And the dollar bill flew away
Experiencing a loss or failure in financial matters

But the sun is shining down on me
Feeling hopeful and optimistic despite setbacks

And it's here to stay
Believing the positive outlook will persist

Don't let it all get you down, no, no
Encouraging others to stay positive and not get overwhelmed by negativity

Well, I can't be bothered with sorrow
Choosing not to dwell on negative emotions and feelings

And I can't be bothered with hate, no, no
Rejecting negative emotions like hatred and choosing positivity

I'm using up the time but feeling fine, every day
Making the most of every day and feeling good despite challenges

Oh, yeah
Expressing excitement and enthusiasm

Don't let it turn you around and around and around, no
Advising others to not get stuck in cycles of negativity and pessimism

Said I just want to celebrate (celebrate)
Repeating the desire to celebrate and be happy

I just want to celebrate (I want to celebrate)
Affirming the desire for joy and happiness

I just want to celebrate (I got to celebrate)
Emphasizing the importance of celebrating and being happy

I just want to celebrate
Reaffirming the main message of the song
