Happiness Is A Good Place To Visit But It Was So Sad In Fayetteville Lyrics - Jerry Jeff Walker

If there's anything at all in this world you want 

Better go for yourself, yeah 

Learn to pick it up with your own two hands 

Don't you count on somebody else, don't 

 

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, yeah 

Got to keep the things you need really close at hand 

And tote them in your bag, yeah 

 

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, yeah 

To walk a road here to there but be prepared 

To dig it where you land, yeah 

 

If lady luck supposed to come across 

She won't come through 

If there's the slightest doubt things could go wrong 

Bound to fall on you 

 

Oh I know it's nice to think that things work out 

And we'll all make our goal, yeah 

But I think a man is wise to only count upon 

What his own two hands can hold, yeah 

 

If by some chance your world should turn on you 

Come a tumblin' down 

You'll be about at the place that I was at 

When I wrote this song 

 

Yeah, happiness is a good place to visit 

But it was so sad in Fayetteville 

Yeah, a man has to count on his own two hands, you know 

Yeah, say 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
