LYRICS:
Happy lives all around the world
Inside of every boy and girl yeah
Dollar bills and gold and pearls
Ain’t never been his style
And happy’s always by your side
Never not willing to provide
But if you abuse him for the night
He don’t show for a while
Well happy don’t have lies to tell
He doesn’t want nothing from no one else and he
Never does concern himself with who’s right or wrong
Happy don’t like alcohol
Bitterness or cruel at all
But when he hears love sing through the wall
Well, Happy sings along
My old friend
Where has the time gone
We were thick as thieves
Until hate came along
What a mess
We’ve gotten into
Hey Happy why can’t everybody just be you
Well Happy sits there patiently
In line behind jealousy
Waiting on a humble epiphany
That your grass might be greener
And happy’s never liked the view
Of “I ain’t good enough” avenue
‘Cause, You can bet if you don’t like you, you don’t like happy neither
Oh my old friend
Where has the time gone
We were thick as thieves
Until hate came along
What a mess
We’ve gotten into
Hey Happy why can’t everybody just be you
These days happy spends his time
Beating on the door of most folks minds
Knowing he’s about to hit his finish line
If we don’t let him in
But that ain’t up to him, nah
My old friend
Where has the time gone
We were thick as thieves
Until hate came along
What a mess
We’ve gotten into
Hey Happy why can’t everybody just be you
Why can’t everybody just be you
Why can’t everybody just be you

Only one person could write a song like this about happiness. Best in the business. Not even close

[@travisdooner8919]

For real. I just got onto Hardy’s stuff late, (I know I suck) but he’s one of the most talented song writers and musicians out there in country/rock

[@dingdongmckong5247]

Does he write his own music?

[@cliff4695]

@@dingdongmckong5247 he writes all of his music and half of the other music on country radio. You must be new here lol

[@ericricke8334]

Ernest?

[@timothyperry1260]

I feel Country Music is finally getting great again. Great songwriting and performance by this guy.

[@beerawk]

I love that it's live audio too not just the album version dubbed over a performance. HARDY has a great live sound and it's awesome to see that showcased. Would love to see more of this from the album.

[@nmdpa3]

First, let let me just say, love Hardy and his music. As to the live audio...Is it? My take is its a prerecorded solo performance sync'd with the video. Could be wrong but its pretty hard to move around like that on a mic and have no change in the level of the vocals.

[@beerawk]

@@nmdpa3 it probably was pre-recorded yeah. I'm just not a fan of the "performance videos" having the exact album cut, that's all. I like the more raw sound personally.

[@windellcanady9661]

O

[@jeffwilliams4619]

Even if it pre recorded it still The best version , prove me wrong 😊

[@JMunn55]

A lot of the performance videos for A Rock were disappointing in that sense, cool videos but noticeably not the live audio, but not the same as the album

[@Bmeloud]

I love that artists like Hardy, Wallen and a few others are publishing these raw acoustic sessions with and without a band. You feel every ounce of it.

[@fritzvall]

It takes pure raw talent to perform like this, so rare these days. Hardy taps directly into my soul and sings the words that I can't ever quite find.

[@jessicakrasnican7623]

I wish he knew how much we love him 🤘 the 🐐

[@dizzylyfe6836]

Hardy for President! I hope to God you win all the awards you deserve brother! You are Amazing!!! Much love Hardy!!!!

[@brianoconnor6913]

What a great song!!!

[@roccocaliace]

Where has time gone? You are awesome 😊

[@sashachilders3362]

I used to feel a lot of happiness. Since going to college and developing an eating disorder…. I have struggled. I have been more familiar with stress than happiness for a long time. Now I am married with kids. Not struggling with the ED but with the everyday stress of life. I cried this morning listening to this because I want to get back to the happiness I once felt so often. ❤️

[@sensforce]

I realize how fortunate I am to have Happy by my side more often than not 🙂

[@Mk1DzL]

I'd love to see Hardy live, just him and his geetar.

[@MrFunk-oz8gq]

OUTSTANDING!!

Well damn! Done it again. I love you!!! Amazing song. Happy song!!makes me feel happy. ❤. From East Tennessee.

Can’t wait to see you in Daytona!!!

[@crystalbenton5410]

Hardy I absolutely love this song it makes me cry because it brings some old memories back but at the same time it makes me think of all my happy times with him and I just think you for this song because it brings all the happiness and joy back into my life I appreciate your singer-songwriter you are well accomplished singer and songwriter and I am very blessed and privilege to be a fan of yours ❤❤❤

[@EFD345]

This man's range is an absolute game changer!!!! Every single person can find a song of his they'll fall in love with.

[@Cruches098]

Gonna go find a song an put this to the test , I prefer rock metal an some rap

Hardy, My Aunt in Georgia has a dog 🐶. His name is Happy.

[@waywardboundband8716]

There are only a couple songs that I could listen to over and over, without them ever getting old. Ironically, they are all songs by Hardy! This is hands down my favorite!

[@BrianCannon-qq3mc]

Dude is one of the greats

Wow, 5 star voice.

[@michaelolson996]

Love your solo videos! God's Country the best so far. Better than the cover. Keep your stories and music from being over produced. Need that raw feeling in music again. You do not need a pilot's license to be on a higher plane. Keep them coming!!!!!!!!!!

[@donavinneptune520]

Great song. Truth. Hate ruins happiness.

[@Ryan-ee3jm]

That's cool as fuck that Hardy can bang those chords out and stay in key , I have a hell of a time with it .

[@SonyaRatzlaff-kx2qo]

One of my favorites from "The Mockingbird..."...he sounds so awesome doing live! I am so excited to see him w/Morgan, Ernest, n Bailey...actually, more excited to see Hardy at this point! But he just fits into my range of musical tastes a bit more, also. Wishing Hardy and Lainey all the best in the upcoming CMT awards as nominee for Video of the Year w/ Wait in the Truck!! It was my first favorite Hardy song...and introduced me to Lainey Wilson! Love you guys!😘🤗
