Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
Happy is as happy does
Laugh and live with a half full cup
