"Happiness Express" Lyrics.
Well I woke up this morning rolled out of bed and to the floor,
one quick look around me and haven't I been here before,
and it was true,
I just about had nothing left to lose.
Well if I'm wanting any better I'm gonna have to make a change,
got back on my feet and I worked on rearrange.
Well I packed up my bags and got my guitar in my hand,
headed into town in search of the promised land and in search of you,
You had to be out there somewhere too.
Arriving at the station train was running down the line,
I didn't have a ticket but I got on for the ride.
I'm on the choo, choo, choo choo train,
running on down the track.
Got my troubles and I threw them away,
never ever gonna look back.
Well I'm done with all the stress!
and I'm done with trying to impress!
I'm on the Happiness Express and I'm on my way!
Steam train,
Blue sky,
green country side,
wind in my hair I never felt more alive I was on my way,
picked up my guitar and I played!
Didn't have a care not a worry on my mind,
lost in my world as we traveled down the line.
Well further down the track about a hundred miles or more,
Conductor called out "everybody, all aboard!" and there was you!
With chestnut hair and eyes of blue.
When you said "Hey honey, where are you heading to?"
I picked up my guitar and I told her in this tune.
I'm on the choo, choo, choo choo train,
running on down the track.
Got my troubles and I threw them away,
never ever gonna look back.
Well I'm done with all the stress!
and I'm done with trying to impress!
I'm on the Happiness Express and I'm on my way!
Diamond ring on my finger,
black limousine,
nothing left to hinder,
us living the dream, from now on,
Troubles from the past are now gone.
we got our happy life, happy house and happy home,
happy people all around us happy music and happy poem.
Now if you want the same story take heed to what I suggest,
stop living on your sorrow and ride the Happiness Express,
it's coming round,
next stop is gonna be your town.
Conductor calls out "Everybody, all aboard!"
blows on his whistle and they sing with one accord.
I'm on the choo, choo, choo choo train,
running on down the track.
Got my troubles and I threw them away,
never ever gonna look back.
Well I'm done with all the stress!
and I'm done with trying to impress!
I'm on the Happiness Express and I'm on my way!
I'm on the Happiness Express and it leaves today!
I'm on the Happiness Express and I'm on my way!
Yeah!
Dig that guitar!
Ah get happy now!
Yeah!
Yeah!

"Proverbs" Lyrics.
It was late one winter's evening and it was pouring rain.
Sitting in the bar room thinking, staring into space.
When I was summoned to the present by a lady who,
seemed to me to be real anxious for some comfort too.
Well she took the chair right by me sitting by my side.
I could tell she was unhappy, could see it in her eyes.
When she said "Hey, I like your music and I like you too."
Something way down deep inside me said,
"You'll be in trouble soon."
How now I regret the moment, when she took a seat.
Never thought that unhappy woman could be so deadly.
I wish I'd listened to you Preacher when you was talkin' to me.
Talkin' to me about the Bible and Proverbs 1:32, 33.
Well I found my self at her place after I told my wife.
I got a gig, it was a long way, won't be coming home tonight.
Now this was nothing new to me friend, I've done it all before.
I told myself this would be the last time and there would be no more.
Turned out to be one too much.
That's what happened to me.
I lost my wife, I lost my family and got calamity.
I wish I'd listened to you Preacher when you was talkin' to me.
Talkin' to me about the Bible and Proverbs 1:32, 33.
I said,
"Find another place for your preachin'.
Don't need no God to show me the way.
I got my band, I got my guitar and I play, like Michael Gonthier plays!"
Is that Preacher somewhere out there, there's something he gotta know.
Now I see it was just madness telling you to go.
Wish I'd listened to ya Preacher, when you was talkin' to me.
Talkin' to me about the Bible and Proverbs 1: 32, 33.
Now I find myself reflecting on everything I had before.
Lost it all because a message once I chose to ignore.
I chose to ignore.
I once chose to ignore.
I once chose to ignore.
I once chose to ignore.
I once chose to ignore
I once chose to ignore

"Adios" Lyrics.
Walking through a park,
a starry sky above.
sun not long gone down,
and with the one I love.
Or in the light of day,
with sun light on her hair.
Weekends far away,
secrets that we share.
Rain drops from grey clouds,
run down the window pain.
Safely in our house,
by the fire flame.
Simple times like these,
I'm at ease,
to wright my thoughts,
for you to read.
You open at the start,
with the words "Sweet heart."
Good bye Lady,
it's time to go.
Good bye darling,
and adiós.
Our moments in a book,
I've taken time to write.
But time has now run out,
our days have taken flight.
These times you can relive,
from words upon a page,
Even be they brief,
they're here with you to stay.
So when you have a need,
to be at peace,
by the window,
you'll sit and read.
And open at the start,
with the words "Sweet Heart."
Good bye Lady,
it's time to go.
Good bye darling,
and adiós.
Tears I cry,
by candle light,
as I relive,
those days gone by.
But you'll go on,
and you'll be strong,
and know that I,
am by your side.
You're walking through a park,
a starry sky above.
Amongst them you will see,
see the one you love.
I see you.
I see you.
I see you.
I see you.
