Happiness Is A Good Place To Visit But I — текст песни (Jerry Jeff Walker)

Jerry Jeff Walker

If there`s anything in this world you want
Better go for yourself
Learn to pick it up with your own two hands
Don`t count on somebody else

If there`s a dream that you are working on
Don`t be surprised
If any old thing that you`re counting on
Just suddenly dies
Got to plan in advance what you know you`ll need
And carry it up on your back
Got to keep the things you need really close at hand
And tote them in your bag

When you`re alone be ready for rain to fall
On a sunny day
If ends just meet be ready to go outside
And break a leg
You may as well get it straight before you start
You`ve got a general plan
To walk a road here to there but be prepared
To dig it where you land

If lady luck supposed to come across
She won`t come through
If there`e the slightest doubt things could go wrong
It`s bound to fall on you
Oh I know it`s nice to think that things work out
And we`ll all make our goal
But I think a man is wise to only count upon
What his own two hands can hold

If by some chance your world should turn on you
Come a tumblin down
You`ll be at the place that I was at
When I wrote this song
