This video contains some little things that I think make people happy, hence the title of the song "If It Makes You Happy". But if you would rather just sing the song then the lyrics are below! Enjoy!

Also, for the people saying that they first heard the song on the film 'Crossroads' starring Britney Spears, - that is also where I first heard the song :)

SONG:

Sheryl Crow - If It Makes You Happy

LYRICS:

I've been long, a long way from here

Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos,

And drank til I was thirsty again

We went searching through thrift store jungles

Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo

And Benny Goodman's corset and pen

Well, o.k. I made this up

I promised you I'd never give up

If it makes you happy

It can't be that bad

If it makes you happy

Then why the hell are you so sad

You get down, real low down

You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train

Well who hasn't been there before?

I come round, around the hard way

Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread

And serve you french toast again

Well, o.k. I still get stoned

I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home

If it makes you happy

It can't be that bad

If it makes you happy

Then why the hell are you so sad

We've been far, far away from here

Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos

And everywhere in between

Well, o.k. we get along

So what if right now everything's wrong?

No copyright infringement intended, music belongs to Sheryl Crow and UMG. I do not own the pictures either.

This version was played at my son Chris' funeral which was on Remembrance Day, Friday 11th November 2005. The last long cord still haunts me. CHRIS JACKSON10.07.72 - 02.11.05"Not what he had, but what he gaveMeasured the worth of the life he lived"The life he lived...so sad it was so shortR.I.P.

And they have been just fine with weed for thousands of years (5,000 years to be more precise), with zero deaths from marijuana toxicity. The same can't be said for alcohol, tylenol (acetominophen), or nicotine.

Instant grats can be downers e.g drugs. Drugs have there place in our culture and I've taken a fair few and probably will continue to on occasion, but perhaps she's just saying ''don't rely on them to keep ur smile. You need more for dat. Below this message write things that make us happy, only for the short term, that torment us in the silent times and keep us awake at night. Anyways, this nice lass is like The Stones; If they were a little more subtle, they wouldn't have been so damn cool xxx

so yeah, lets legalize it so it can be made into a corporate held commodity and all the stoners can stop talking about taking down wall street. I'm serious. It's a win win for everyone :D

tylenol is a far harder and more harmful drug than marijuana. so is alcohol. and nicotine.

hardcore drugs kill people. marijuana has never killed anyone as far back as records go. it was made illegal due to racism, and has stayed illegal because it makes governments loads of money keeping it illegal.

Awesome song. Speaks to me about heroin, which IS that bad, and I'm quitting. But what a beautiful damn song.
