[Verse 1]
Sunset's painting up the sky
There's something in my eye
Why am I crying?
It's the fourth of July

[Verse 2]
Friends come up to me and say
"It's gonna be your day"
Why are they lying?
On the fourth of July

[Bridge]
Could it have something to do with the fact
That I've been feeling blue since Friday?
You came in with him again
And, suddenly, I knew it wasn't my day
Oh no, well, anyway

Choo doo doo doo doo doo doo ah
Ch-ch-choo doo doo doo ah
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo do

[Bridge]
Could it have something to do with the fact
That I've been feeling blue since Friday?
You walked in with him again
And, suddenly, I knew it wasn't my day
Oh no, well, anyway
Oh, well, anyway
Well, anyway
Oh no no, well, anyway
[Verse 1/Outro]
Sunset's painting up the sky
There's something in my eye
Why am I crying?
On the fourth of July
Why am I crying?
On the fourth of July
Ooh, why am I- why am I crying?
It's the fourth of July
