Lyrics

Happy Hour
Copyrighted @2001



Let's have one last drink, and maybe I could learn how to live without you..
I'll have mine on the rocks, just like our love.
I know my cheatin heart gave you independence power
That's why I feel so bad
That's why I feel so sad

But it's Happy Hour, yea some happy hour

Here's to the memories of the times, that we stood, that we?d fall.
Believe me baby I loved you thru it all.
But now a torn bush stands where once a beautiful flower.
That's why I feel so bad
That's why I feel so sad

But it's happy hour, yea some happy hour

I know it's my entire fault.
I'm the only one to blame.
If you fool around you're bound to get caught.
Don?t give me back my name.

Give me more drink, give me one for the road.
Cause my old heart is bearing such a heavy load.
How could a love so sweet turn so sour.
That's why I feel so bad
That's why I feel so sad

But it's Happy hour, yea some happy hour

Got to put on my boots.
gotta go to the bar
gotta try try to make myself happy
