If It Makes You Happy (Sheryl Crow cover) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been a long, a long way from here
I put on a poncho and played for mosquitoes
And drank 'til I was thirsty again
We went searching through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle and Marilyn's shampoo
And Benny Goodman's cursive pen
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, okay, I made this up
I promised you I'd never give up
[Chorus]
If it makes you happy, it can't be that bad
If it makes you happy, then why the hell are you so sad?
[Verse 2]
I get down, real low down
You listen to Coltrane and derail your own train
Well, who hasn't been there before?
I come around, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you French toast again
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, okay, I still get stoned
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home
[Chorus]
If it makes you happy, it can't be that bad
If it makes you happy, then why the hell are you so sad?
If it makes you happy, it can't be that bad
If it makes you happy, then why the hell are you so sad?
I've been a long, a long way from here
I put on a poncho and played for mosquitoes
And drank 'til I was thirsty again
We went searching through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle and Marilyn's shampoo
And Benny Goodman's cursive pen
Well, okay, I made this up
I promised you I'd never give up
If it makes you happy, it can't be that bad
If it makes you happy, then why the hell are you so sad?
I get down, real low down
You listen to Coltrane and derail your own train
Well, who hasn't been there before?
I come around, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you French toast again
Well, okay, I still get stoned
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home
If it makes you happy, it can't be that bad
If it makes you happy, then why the hell are you so sad?
If it makes you happy, it can't be that bad
If it makes you happy, then why the hell are you so sad?
