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 4 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
