Lyrics

Happy (Live 2003)

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Well I never kept a dollar past sunset

It always burned a hole in my pants

Never made a school mama happy

Never blew a second chance, oh no

[Chorus]

I need a love to keep me happy

I need a love

Baby, keep me happy

Baby, keep me happy

[Verse 2]

Always took candy from strangers

Didn't wanna get me no trade

Never want to be like papa

Working for the boss every night and day

[Chorus]

I need a love

I need a love

Baby

Baby

I need a love to keep me happy

Baby

Baby

[Verse 3]

Never got a flash out of cocktails

When I got some flesh off the bone

Never got a lift out of Lear jets

When I can fly way back home

[Chorus]

I need a love to keep me happy

I need a love to keep me happy

Baby

Baby, keep me happy huh

Happy

Kick it off Ron

Happy

Happy, yeah

Happy, baby, baby, yeah

Happy

[Guitar Solo]

Baby, keep me baby won't you honey

[Instrumental Outro]

[Audience Applause]

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]

Alright, you're cool. I see ya's
