happy,let me tell you how to do it
You get up in the morning
You bring home the bacon and
You get a little sleepy and
Life don't have to mean nothin' at all
If everybody says you're a little to tall
Go out and get yourself a basketball
Life don't have to mean nothin' at all
If everybody says you're a little to short
Go out and get yourself a big ol' horse
You can be a jockey if you got no fear
You can make forty seven mil
Life don't have to mean nothin' at all
Life don't have to mean nothin' at all
Be good to your sister and
Be good to your poppa and
Life don't have to mean nothin' at all
Go out and start a brand new religion
Get on TV and make a money request
They can all go to heaven while
they're starvin' to death
Life don't have to mean nothin' at all
you're a little too rough
Go out and get yourself some boxing gloves
Beat somebody up around the ears
You can make fort y seven
Life don't have to mean nothin' at all
Life don't have to mean nothin' at all
Be good to your sister and
Be good to your poppa and
Life don't have to mean nothin' at all
Get yourself into politics
Get that office and get that power
And you can spend forty seven
Life don't have to mean nothin' at all
Now if you can pick a guitar
and sing through your nose
Get yourself a bunchy of cowboy clothes
Life don't have to mean nothin' at
