New Year's Wishes




Let The Good Guys Win, Murray McLaughlan, Paul Hyde, Tom Cochrane,1989


This is from McLaughlan's 1991 Album The Modern Age.  


These three guys are all amazing musicians.  Tom Cochrane (Life is A Highway), Paul Hyde (The Payola$), Murray McLaughlan (Farmer's Song).


This song is the best wish for a new year.  My favorite song for a new year celebration.

May I get what I want, not what I deserve
May the coming year not throw a single curve
May I hurt nobody, may I tell no lies
If I can't go on, give me strength to try

Chorus:

Ring the old year out, Ring the new year in
Bring us all good luck, Let the good guys win

Ring the old year out, Ring the new year in
Bring us all good luck, Let the good guys win

May the one you love be the one you get
May you get some place, you haven't been to yet
May your friends surround you, never do you wrong
May your eyes be clear, may your heart be strong

Chorus

May the times to come be the best you've had
May peace rule the world and make us glad
When you see something wrong, make it right
Put a shadowed world into the bright sunlight

Chorus
