A Happy Man's Tale

If you've heard The things I've heard If you've seen The things I've seen If you've been To the places I've been You would know what I mean I flow like the water No cage can hold me I live to find laughter I live to be happy I hate to cry I hate to be sad I love to try I love to be mad No boundaries define me I know where I stand No thoughts scare me I wish you'd understand I am penniless with no money on me I am rich with happiness All the good things in the world are free I don't let life bury me I dig myself out I don't let anyone brand me I let myself stand out I have no worries That's not a lie I have so many memories To keep them with me forever I try I don't shy away from a challenge I always think I can I don't believe in revenge That's why I'm a happy man I have no enemies I have not one grudge I have many families The path of friendship I trudge If you've heard The things I've heard If you've seen The things I've seen If you've been To the places I've been You would know What I mean.
