Rhett Akins Happy as We Wanna Be lyrics

I've hung out with people with money
And I've hung out with people without
I've had friends in high cotton honey
And friends with beans for a bank account

Now what I've learnt is too short for a book
And too long for a bumper sticker
In this whole world there ain't nothin' for sure
But far as I can figure

You can't get rich in Las Vegas
Can't retire on minimum wages
But with a little bit of love and some cable TV
We can be happy, relatively happy
Cool as a glass of iced tea
Happy as we wanna be

Life dishes out some difficult lessons
Life might hit us with a couple o' blows
But when we stop and count up our blessings
It takes ten fingers and a couple o' toes


Yeah, I found out what really counts
Is what they don't teach in college
'Coz it says right here on page no.1
In the book of common knowledge

You can't get rich in Las Vegas
You can't retire on minimum wages
But with a little bit of love and some cable TV
We can be happy, relatively happy
Cool as a glass of iced tea
Happy as we wanna be

Yeah, with a little bit of love and some cable TV
We can be happy, relatively happy
Cool as a glass of iced tea
Oh, happy as we wanna be
