If money grew on hackberry trees and time wasn't such a luxury
If love was lovesick over me that'd be alright
If I could keep the wind in my sails keep ahold of the tiger by the tail
And half a ham sandwich in my lunch pail that'd be alright
CHORUS:
That'd be alright, that'd be alright
If everybody everywhere had a lighter load to bear
And a little bigger piece of the pie
We'd be living us a pretty good life
And that'd be alright
Go heavy on the good and light on the bad
A hair more happy and a shade less sad
Turn all negatives down just a tad That'd be alright
If my dear old dog never got old and the family farm never got sold
Another bad joke never got told, that'd be alright
CHORUS:
INSTRUMENTAL:
CHORUS: X2
That'd be alright; That'd be alright; That'd be alright
If love was lovesick over me that'd be alright
If I could keep the wind in my sails keep ahold of the tiger by the tail
And half a ham sandwich in my lunch pail that'd be alright
CHORUS:
That'd be alright, that'd be alright
If everybody everywhere had a lighter load to bear
And a little bigger piece of the pie
We'd be living us a pretty good life
And that'd be alright
Go heavy on the good and light on the bad
A hair more happy and a shade less sad
Turn all negatives down just a tad That'd be alright
If my dear old dog never got old and the family farm never got sold
Another bad joke never got told, that'd be alright
CHORUS:
INSTRUMENTAL:
CHORUS: X2
That'd be alright; That'd be alright; That'd be alright
