Crossroads movie - If It Makes You Happy lyrics

rate me

Song by Sheryl Crow<br /><br>

I've been long, along way from here <br>

Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos, <br>

And drank 'til I was thirsty again <br>

We went searching through thrift store jungles <br>

<br>

Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo <br>

And Benny Goodman's corset and pen <br>

<br>

Well, o.k. I made this up <br>

I promised you I'd never give up <br>

<br>

[Chorus] <br>

If it makes you happy <br>

It can't be that bad <br>

If it makes you happy <br>

Then why the hell are you so sad <br>

<br>

You get down, real low down <br>

You listen to coltrane, derail your own train<br>

Well who hasn't been there before? <br>

<br>

I come round, around the hard way <br>

Bring you comics in bed, <br>

Scrape the mold off the bread, <br>

And serve you french toast again <br>

<br>

Well, o.k. I still get stoned <br>

I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home <br>

<br>

Chorus <br>

<br>

We've been far, far away from here <br>

Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos, <br>

And everywhere in between <br>

<br>

Well, o.k. we get along <br>

So what if right now everything's wrong? <br>

<br>

Chorus<br>

<br>

<br>
