lyrics

Tried to teach the dog to play
To play guitar
Knew that he could learn to be
Learn to be a star
Tempted him with bacon
‘Til his tail was thumping
Just a simple rhythm
Of happiness

There is no road to happiness
Happiness is the road
Woody Guthrie traveled there
So did Tom Joad
Crazy is as crazy does
Oh we would know
Crazy is as crazy does
When you miss the road

The sauce you suck out of the middle
Is better than icing on the cake
But you went and ate it all
Now you got a bellyache
Crazy is as crazy does
Oh we would know
Crazy is as crazy does
When you miss the road
When you miss the road
