Die Happy Songtext
von Them Coulee Boys

You always said I was a better person than I knew I was
Now I got blood on my hands and I don′t know what it's from
So before you call the rain, to wash this ugliness away
I′m gonna lie out, let it dry out in the sun

You always said I was a better lover than I knew I was
That I was handsome patient and kind and all the above
It's a lonely life to lead, wondering when you'll think of me
The next time that the new guy wanders off

But if I die tomorrow, what kind of song would that be?
Lord, lord, lord won′t you let me die happy?

You always said I was a better dancer than I knew I was
And I kept the time in case you ever screwed up
But I′m glad you saw in me, all the things I couldn't see
Dance along until you wandered off

But if I die tomorrow, what kind of song would that be?
Lord, lord, lord won′t you let me die happy?


I sang songs about you, darling
In the bars I cut my teeth
With each bite I took I needed a little more
And with each midwestern starlet
That came walking up to me
She always asked me what I was smiling for
I said, "My yesterday's behind me
And tomorrow′s looking bright"
And tonight I got some work to do
So I wrapped my arms around her
Let the revelry surround us
And I might have kissed her
She reminded me of you

But if I die tomorrow, what kind of song would that be?
Lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord
I said lord, lord, lord, won't you let me die happy?
Happy
Happy
