[Verse 1]
There's a lot of bad wood underneath the veneer
She's an overnight sensation after twenty-five years
Sharp fast curves, power steering
Unroll that twenty, buy me some beer
[Pre-Chorus]
Ain't too bad, too bad at all
Pick up the phone if I ever call
[Chorus]
Hell no, I ain't happy
Hell no, I ain't happy
Hell no, I ain't happy
[Verse 2]
There's a pretty little girl outside the van window (Woo)
'Bout eighty cities down, eight-hundred to go
Six crammed in, I ain't never alone (Woo)
Ain't never homesick, ain't got no home
[Pre-Chorus]
Check my mail if you would please, Jenn
Collect my things when I'm in town again
[Chorus]
Hell no, I ain't happy
Hell no, I ain't happy
Hell no, I ain't happy
[Bridge]
But I get a little closer everyday
Gonna be a little while 'fore I'm back your way
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
And I've seen just how much I can stand
One night in Kansas City, I thought about killin' a man
I seen my number fly by on Interstate 10
Seen the mountains of Montana at 7AM
[Pre-Chorus]
But I keep it all together for the sake of the kids
Got your fine-ass self on the back of my lids
[Chorus]
Hell no, I ain't happy
Hell no, I ain't happy
Hell no, I ain't happy
[Outro]
But I ain't too crappy
No, I ain't too crappy, too crappy at all
No, no
[Applause]
[Segue]
You guys need anything else? (Uh)
I would really love another Grey Hound
(Sam, anything? A regular?)
I could use an amplifier
(The lady wants a Grey Hound)
Yeah, we all could use some amplifier
Yeah, wait— Who-Who?
We can use like three amplifiers, if you have 'em
Woo, yeah (Okay, so—)
Oh, woo, woo (Earl's got an amplifier)
(Earl's got an amplifier)
Earl's [?], ladies and gentlemen
The [?]
[?]
(Earl's got an amplifier)
Woo, woo
Wha-What to never do— Woo
What to never do in your band? (Haha)
Never, ever, let the bass player be the only guy in the room with a fuckin' amp
Hahaha (Yes)
(Never) Woo
A-A-And my dad's over there disagreeing
Yeah, I know
Hahaha (He's like—)
He's like, he's like, "the bass player's the only one that's in tune, motherfucker"
Hahaha
[?]
(The only one that can read a chart, that's for damn sure)
Yeah, the bass player's the only one that can read a chart, so?
The bass player's the only one that needs one
