Two shots of happy, One shot of sad

Two shots of happy, one shot of sad
You think I'm no good, I know I've been bad
He took you to a place, now you can't get back
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad

Locked together, down dead-end street
We were mixing the bitter with the sweet
I'm to try to figure out, what we might have
Just two shots of happy, one shot of sad

I'm just a singer, some say a sinner
Rolling the dices, not always a winner
You say I've been lucky, well I've made my own
Not part of the crowd, but not feeling alone

Under pressure, but not bent out of shape
Surrounded we always found and escape
You drove me to drink, they've had it so bad
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad

Yes I've been greedy, all of my life
Greedy with my children, my lovers, my wife
Greedy for the good things, as well as the bad
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad

Maybe it's just talk, saloon singing
The jazz I'll stat, the swinging stop swinging
You say I hurt you, you put the finger on yourself
After you did, you came crying for my help

Two shots of happy, one shot of sad
I ain't complaining, baby come back
You call it compromise, well what's that
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad

Two shots of happy, one shot of sad
