Lyrics Happy Woman Blues - Kasey Chambers

Happy Woman Blues

Lucinda Williams lead vocals and acoustic guitar
Mickey White acoustic rhythm and lead guitars, harmony vocals
Rex Bell electric bass and harmony vocals
Andre Matthews electric rhythm, lead and slide guitars
Ira Wilkes drums
Mickey Moody pedal steel guitar
Malcolm Smith fiddle and viola
Tryin' hard to be a happy woman
But sometimes life just overcomes me
Everyday I’m workin' just to pay my dues
Lay down at night, my mind is so confused
Goin' down south with the New York City blues
Gotta hit the road before I blow a fuse
I might buy me a Cadillac or a Chevrolet
I don’t care what model as long as it takes me away
I’ve been hiding my heart in a trunk
Can you come see me when my ship has sunk
You can give me loovin, that I can’t refuse
And love is the one thing that’s sure to cure my blues
Goin' down the road with a heave heart
Tryin' to find lightness in the dark
Tryin' to live my life, tryin' to get satisfied
My mind is in the city but my heart is in the countryside
Tryin' hard to be a happy woman
But sometimes life just overcomes me
Everyday I’m workin' just to pay my dues
Lay down at night, my mind is so confused
Lay down at night, my mind is so confused
