Ol' sunaco charlie drives an '87 harley

Sells gasoline and what you drink 8 to 3 am

Got a tattoo for the corps and ex wife number four

Hummin' along, schoolin' ya on the songs on his station

He could be another one cussin' the government, no, but he smiles

Got hundred reasons not to, but he's the poster child for.

Happy is as happy does

Grab a 6 string, find a rope swing

Hang a palm tree in your truck

Drink a beer just because

Steal a slow dance in a rain storm

And a kiss from who you love

Laugh and live with a half full cup

Yeah, happy is as happy does.

Some find it in the scripture or a polaroid picture

Or flip a coin, heads, you're goin' to tucson, arizona

But it damn sure ain't in the lookin' back on the stuff you never did

Sometimes you're gonna feel that, but life is better when.

Happy is as happy does

Grab a 6 string, find a rope swing

Hang a palm tree in your truck

Drink a beer just because

Steal a slow dance in a rain storm

And a kiss from who you love

Laugh and live with a half full cup

'cause happy is as happy does.

She's a long way from the old her

In this mountain dive in boulder

Every pickle jar, crinkled dollar takes her another mile high.

Happy is as happy does

Grab a 6 string, find a rope swing

Hang a palm tree in your truck

Drink a beer just because

Steal a slow dance in a rain storm

And a kiss from who you love

Laugh and live with a half full cup

When it's all black clouds, find the sun

'cause happy is as happy does.

Happy is as happy does

Laugh and live with a half full cup.
