Bobby Bare - Pursuing Happiness lyrics

rate me

I know that my surroundings aren't the very best

But my soul's on fire and won't let me rest

I'm doing things I really shouldn't do I guess I'm just pursuing happiness

I'm living much too fast a pace with two to care

I'm just looking for a dream that I can share

I'm sinking fast but no one hears my SOS I'm just pursuing happiness

Almost everyone I know has someone to worry

Someone to cheer them when they're low

So if I walk by you in too big a hurry it's because I got no place to go

Wherever people gather that's where I'll be found

In hope that someone's hand will reach and slow me down

Behind me I can feel that demon loneliness I'm just pursuing happiness

[ el.banjo ]

Almost everyone I know...

I'm just persuing happiness I'm just pursuing happiness
