Lyrics:
A LITTLE HAPPINESS
Came home from that war in 1969
Thought I could leave everything behind
But not to my surprise
I was telling myself lies
There was no turning around
Till I found myself
Couldn't stop thinking about that damn war
Drinking at the corner bar wouldn't heal that sore
Tried to flush it all away
But the bad dreams they'd stay
Didn't know what to do
Was a battle I couldn't win
So I cursed at the devil
Prayed to the angels
Searched for something that could fix my mess
Begged for forgiveness
Dug me a real deep hole
And I found a little happiness
Called my war buddy to spread the word
Told him you could win the war inside and I'm not being absurd
Talk about what's bothering you
Tell somebody your point of view
Cleanse your tortured soul
And get a little for you
CHORUS
If you don't cure what's ailing you
You're never ever going to break through
CHORUS
I've found a little happiness
