Happiness Jones

from One Drop of Truth by The Wood Brothers

/

lyrics

all of my wisdom came
from all the toughest days
i never learned a thing bein’ happy
all of my sufferin’ came
i didn’t appreciate it
I never learned a thing bein’ happy
but to know how it feels now and then
I got a happiness jones my friend… Happiness Jones

all of my answers came
driving myself insane
I had a dragon to tame to be happy
all of my peace and quiet
came from putting out fire
I keep a spark alive to be happy
that old dragon’s gonna come back mad
I got a happiness jones so bad…Happiness Jones

Happy Happy Happy Happiness Jones
I’m not sick
I’m not alone
we all got it…Happiness Jones

all of those words I wrote
in the storm that rocked my boat
all of that was stuck in my throat when I was happy
all of those songs I was singin’
while my boat was sinkin’
next thing i’m thinkin' i’m happy
i might as well change my name
to Happiness jones my friend….Happiness Jones
