I know that my surroundings aren't the very best But my soul's on fire and won't let me rest I'm doing things I really shouldn't do I guess I'm just pursuing happiness I'm living much too fast a pace with two to care I'm just looking for a dream that I can share I'm sinking fast but no one hears my SOS I'm just pursuing happiness Almost everyone I know has someone to worry Someone to cheer them when they're low So if I walk by you in too big a hurry it's because I got no place to go Wherever people gather that's where I'll be found In hope that someone's hand will reach and slow me down Behind me I can feel that demon loneliness I'm just pursuing happiness [ el.banjo ] Almost everyone I know... I'm just persuing happiness I'm just pursuing happiness
