Does anybody have a recording or the lyrics to this song SDC used to play at the opening ceremony? The chorus was from the song Company's Coming, but I seem to recall the verse lyrics were specific to SDC.

Thanks!

Yes I remember that song being used in opening ceremonies along with Wonderful Day.  I don't recall the lyrics being changed to be specific to SDC but Wonderful Day was specific to SDC.  I believe the original song was done by Porter Wagoner.  Found these 2 on Youtube!

Thanks!

Apparently I had Wonderful Day and Company's Coming mixed up into one song!

Appreciate it.

I wonder if there's anyway to get an mp3 of wonderful day?

Your welcome!  It's easy to understand getting the two songs mixed because they were played back to back.  I have asked and scratched around trying to find some kind of copy of Wonderful Day but with no luck.  It was put up as a ringtone when they celebrated their 50th anniversary with some other memorable tunes from the city.  Hopefully they will bring it back someday.

I think both were available on the 50th anniversary website.
