"Its Hard To Be Happy (Y Is For Redneck)"
It's hard to be happy even when there's nothing wrong
It's hard to be happy with everything going on
It's easy to get busy worrying all night long
But it's hard to be happy even when there's nothing wrong
That's why I'm paying some doctor to listen to me talk
While I tell him what it's all been coming to
He's been takin' notes he'll be looking over later
We're both hopin' there's somethin' he can do
It's hard to be happy even when there's nothing wrong
It's hard to be happy with everything going on
It's easy to get busy worrying all night long
But it's hard to be happy even when there's nothing wrong
So there's a room full of people behind me in line
Staring up at his framed up ivy league degree
Where he studied every study ever done on the mind
And he's still makin' his guarantee
It's hard to be happy even when there's nothing wrong
It's hard to be happy with everything going on
It's easy to get busy worrying all night long
But it's hard to be happy even when there's nothing wrong

Josh Ritter - "You Won't Dig My Grave" I am no weeping willow
I am no fragile flower
To be taken by the frost

Of the road ahead for me
And despite that I can't see that far...

Hayes Carll - "None'ya" I asked you where you'd been and you said "None'ya"
"None'ya business, don't you ask no more"
You said "If you would do a better job of listenin'
Then maybe you would understand why I'm at the door"...
Son Volt - "Drown" Sky cracks open, walls falling to the floor
Just as well to keep it a guessing game in store
You're with me now, will be again
All other points in between
