Vile, Kurt - Wakin On A Pretty Day Lyrics
Wakin in the dawn of day
I gotta think about what I wanna say
Phone ringin off the shelf
I guess he wanted to kill himself
Wakin on a pretty day
It's hard to explain
My love in this daze
You can say I've been most all around
But honey I ain't goin nowhere
Don't worry bout a thing
It's only dying
I love along a straight line
Nothin always comes to mind
To be frank, I'm fried
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Been diggin
Layin low, low, low
I'm diggin
Layin low, low, low
Dig, dig in
To these lives that we are livin
Livin low
Lackadaisically so
Risin at the crack of dawn
I gotta think about what wisecrack
I'm gonna drop along the way today
Phone ringin off the shelf
I guess somebody got somethin they
Really wanna prove to us today
Wakin on a pretty day
For any place
No use sayin nothin
To explain it
To my loved ones today

ever heard of adblock? works like a charm

A few years back me and two friends took a road trip from Toronto to Indianapolis, we saw Kurt Vile and it was a phenomenal show. Pretty Pimpin' had just come out, long story short- there was about a 15 minute break after the show, and tbh half the crowd was still there, anyways, KV comes out to the back of the room and he prob stood for an hour just signing autographs and taking pics with people, nobody rushed him, everyone just followed the cool, pay your dues, wait in line, and you'll get your chance example he set. I have a copy of Pretty Daze on vinyl signed by the legend now, and it always cheers me up after a rough outing.
The song pretty pimpin way better....like truthfully his best song so far wich I belive...like he has other good nd great songs dont take me wrong at all this guys talented for sure nd great taste in music....but my man.....my guys......if u hvnt heard the song prety pimpin by kurt than your totaly missing out...its just such a great song with feeling really really is everyone kurt vile pretty pimpin is the song by the way
Beautifully hypnotizing
when the circus comes to town
bring onnnn the maaajor leaaagues
Ominous say it’s a good
everyone acting like this is just a happy and uplifting song.... dont you think its about a friend committing suicide?? its bittersweet maybe
This song should (and could) be 9𝟬:30...
I used to listening to this song with friends in the skatepark.
yeahhhhhhhhhhh friggin looooooooooooooove it
All his songs are pretty damn good I must say
Great!!!
Just saw him live July 31st in Buffalo. He rocks the hell out of the solo, (kinda how Jimmy Page improvises a 3 minute guitar solo when he plays Stairway to Heaven) so much that his whammy bar flew off twice. Incredible guitarist. Love him so much.
Fell asleep listening to War on drugs - Pain and woke to Kurt Vile - Wakin on a pretty daze. Beautifully mellow
Ai galera Br, um som que presta e bem puro em sua essência.
so nice
The Boognish are proud
Kurt v. And Courtney b. Thanks for making me feel alive. Hope know you in the rest of my life.
I really love it.
awesome tune
I hear Velvet underground in this......!
완벽함. 완벽한 노스텔지어.
This special gem continues to get me through some dark times. Laid-back perfection!
Love this music he's gone so far for a young artist!
Good song and its not over in 3 minutes!
It's still too short!
Wonder if Vile ever smoked a spliff
I absolutely love this song and how chill it is.. but am I the only one who wishes it sped up at some point? Maybe near the end? I think that’d be pretty epic.
If Armageddon comes while I'm alive I'll blast this song in defiance.
Audio Heroin
He's such a good stoner
I misread it as WACKIN' on a pretty day better put the peace pipe down
Reminds me of her falling asleep in my arms. Couldn't help but run away in the middle of the night.. Damn.
Whyd you run
One of my favs from Kurt.
One of 'em coolest songs 😀
Min. 07:21 makes this song a masterpiece.
thats when this song got my attention
yeah yeahh yeaahh yeahh yeahh yeahhh forgot the rest but great song
I like this song.
Perfect
Kurt Vile be comin up. Sweet. Thanks for posting.
Peace.
Someone interested in my new single 'On A Roll'? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhRFCcn6Jl8
Dope Song..but you need "The" Ears to enjoy vile and understand his music..his chillout flow..his passion..his stringwork..really enjoyable..
not many people realize his talent, you really need to dive into his music. He's an incredible songwriter.
yeah right..
liked it right away just heard pretty pimpin then this
Intro feels buckethead esque...
Straight ripped off Pavement/Stephen Malkmus music style
And we were missing it
National Anthem of freaking out a little because you overslept, thinking it's Monday and realizing it's Sunday, it's beautiful out and you have zero obligations.
peace and paradise yeah yeah and tea!!!!!!!!! yeah yeah
this song takes you places.... so good.
love how simple his melodies are
I hear Neil Young in there..
ever since I lived in a college dorm in 2013 i started blasting this song every morning, when all i cared about was what pals to hang out that day or how to score some cigs. nowadays it's still my go-to morning song for sunny days and good vibes, and every time it sends me back. thanks for this jam!
Just don't want this song to end
If you ever get the chance to see this wonderful man live GRAB IT WITH BOTH HANDS!!! He's incredible. Recorded sessions just don't do him or his music justice.
Bakin' On A Pretty Day...
This has been my favorite fucking song for the last two years after I discovered it. The amount of emotions and feelings that guitar solo conjures up inside, man...
Kurt Vile is the answer.
kurt is awesome
Look at the comments on this video - literally nothing but decent seeming people giving love and respect to each other. Makes me so proud to be a lover of this type of music when there's so much shit and hate out there on the internet
has potential! .
Damn! This man sure can sing a pretty song!
This album changed my life. It's my savior
The way the tempo pushes and pulls throughout is very interesting
In a world where every new song on the radio is auto tuned and set to a grid, this sounds like magic.
I love those tempo drives, too....love everything this song.....love everything Kurt Vile.
This helps my arm when it falls asleep at night-
Lunch smoke breaks
Ha I thought I was the only one.
Do yourself a favour... click the settings button and select "Speed x 1.5". You can thank me later ; - )
Doesn’t really need it. Perfect the way KV intended
reminds me the album "Days" by real estate
There’s a lot of similarities to Pantera’s “Cemetery Gates”
Great song though
I spent a fair amount of time today figuring out which song I knew that riff (@4:29) from. I googled it too, but found nothing until I got it a few minutes ago, so I thought I'd write a comment somewhere for the next guy (or gal) in the same boat, and here you were all along with the answer. So...googlewords: riff wakin on a pretty day pantera cemetery gates.
You're welcome, future friends.
I'm losing my mind. More and more episodes and breakdowns as the days go on. Kurt Viles music gives me so much peace though. I can drift into such a beautiful world with this sound
Hope you're doing better stranger
Im Here
Keep the energy alive love u all good decent kind hearted brothers and sisters of the world. Peace and love forever. The energy lives on.
Chris wilson I manifest the best and fairest kind vibrations for you and the all worldly beings that are together for the day 👽
Well said brother
Much better thanks....,
Philly!!!
93
Kind of a Stephen Malkmus/ Mason Jennings vibe
shit maaaan i just verify the dates of his tour with the violators and they just past throught my town FUCCCCCCCCCKKK YouTube i hate you why did you show me this artista so fucking late! MOTHAFUCKA Lou Reed 2.0 for me!
kisses and hugs from Madriz
Trop sympa ce mur :) Courtney tu est au top !
If Neil Young had a stoner, slacker son, from Philadelphia......... 👍🏼
He's neither a stoner nor a slacker. Slackers don't write this kinda music and he doesn't smoke a lot of weed.
I mean, who knows for sure that he didn't, right?
Neil was a Stoner
@Mark Wright Yep. This sure isn't a Slacker schedule:..

I blew out my upper pelvis & this music calms my loins down. Thanks Kurt!!)
The most calming guitar. Perhaps maybe the most beautiful melodies
Ive ever been healed by.
it's hard explain my love in this daze :~
kurt vile is my sugar daddy
Wakin in the dawn of day
I gotta think about what I wanna say
Phone ringin off the shelf
I guess he wanted to kill himself
Wakin on a pretty day
Don't know why I ever go away
It's hard to explain
My love in this daze
You can say I've been most all around
But honey I ain't goin' nowhere
Don't worry 'bout a thing
It's only dying
I live along a straight line
Nothin' always comes to mind
To be frank, I'm fried
But I don't mind
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Been diggin'
Layin' low, low, low
I'm diggin' in
Layin' low, low, low
Dig, dig in
To these lives that we are livin'
Livin' low
Lackadaisically so
Risin' at the crack of dawn
I gotta think about what wisecrack
I'm gonna drop along the way today
Phone ringin' off the shelf
I guess somebody got somethin' they
Really wanna prove to us today
Wakin on a pretty day
For any place
No use sayin' nothin'
To explain it
To my loved ones today
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah

Music to my ears.
I listen to this song most days. I love it.
Love putting this on when cruising down the highway on a pretty day
Saludos desde Chile ! Buena musica
This song is 100 percent timeless. Absolutely awesome, the quickest 9 min of my life, from the 6:30 mark onwards it just scratches all my itches, and turns every problem I have to a bunch of chill as fuck goosebumps.
Hey Kurt, could you be my personal, first and the last ?? And only only Idol ??? There is a lot of Bands, so they could take them all ?
And we could walk, just once ; One Walk is ok more is a gay.
O fuuuck... I Hope you're taken by others already.
I found out my dad had stage 4 cancer today and this song is giving me hope and calming me immensely. I love you, Kurt. God bless you.
I'm sorry to hear that Chase. Stay strong buddy.
God have mercy on you and your family.
Hope everything is well man with you and your dad
Chase T God bless man. I hope you are well, and that life is taking it easy on you. we all deserve a break.
