if it makes you happy - ian mcconnell lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i’ve played 600 cover gigs at 4 hours a piece
i could probably play wagon wheel perfectly in my sleep
and i know, as day jobs go, i’ve got it pretty f*ckin’ sweet
but, man, i’m tired

i’ve got 1,200 songs that came directly from my brain
but i know 90% of them will never see the light of day
and sometimes it’s pulling t**th trying to find something new to say
or get inspired

[pre*chorus]
i never promised anyone
that i would never give it up
but, man, i really don’t know what i’d do instead

[chorus]
if it makes you happy, it can’t be that bad
if it makes you happy, then why the h*ll are you so sad?

[verse 2]
i heard “do what you love for work and you won’t work again”
it’s more like “watch what you love become the work that never ends”
and i feel like such a whiner, but that’s kind of how it is
can i find myself in this, or will i lose it?
[chorus]
if it makes you happy, it can’t be that bad
if it makes you happy, then why the h*ll are you so sad?

oh, oh, so sad, oh

[bridge]
i’ve been listening to sheryl crow since i was probably 10
but ’til now, all those words went right over my head

[chorus]
if it makes you happy, it can’t be that bad
if it makes you happy, then why the h*ll are you so sad?
if it makes you happy, then why the h*ll are you so sad?
