Happytown

Happytown Lyrics

It's been a long, long road so full of bumps and bruising
I was a lonely man so tired of constantly losing
But then I took a look inside my weary soul
And then I finally found that long elusive goal
And I'm in Happytown – it took so long to find
And I'm staying in Happytown – it's mostly in your mind
And I'm never going back down that road again
And I would like for you to be with me, my friend
So come on down to Happytown
Been twenty years or more but Lord I finally got there
Tried sex and drugs and rock and roll but it was not there
Using the anger as a substitute for fear
Trying to hide it all behind a thin veneer
I lost my way to Happytown
Wandered so far away from Happytown
And don't you know no matter how far you get off track
If you look hard enough you'll find your own way back
So come on back to Happytown

It's all waiting here for you – right down here in Happytown
You got no need to be blue

(Short instrumental break)

I've got a one way ticket and I'd like you by my side
We'll get an all-day wristband and we'll go on every ride
All the way through Happytown
It's all waiting here for you
Right down here in Happytown
I'm telling you, Baby, it's true
So come on down to Happytown
