      I don't write sad songs any more

 

I don’t write sad songs any more

That’s all behind me now I’m sure

I used to sing about feeling blue

And how I shed a tear or two over you

 

I can’t sing anything that’s sad

This time’s the best I’ve ever had

So don’t you ask me

I’ve told you once before

I don’t write sad songs anymore

 

Yee haa, let the good times roll

I’m such a happy so and  so

And if it’s hard to change my style

It’s ‘cause I’ve been too blue to smile for a while

So please believe me when I say

I’m really going to change my ways

And don’t you ask me

I’ve told you once before

I don’t write sad songs anymore

 

   When I write a song it’s so revealing

   Of everything I’m keeping deep inside

   I used to have this overwhelming feeling

   Of loneliness I never learned to hide

 

But now I’m feeling good again

Ain’t been this good since don’t know when

And if you see tears in my eyes

Its tears of happiness I cry I don’t lie

So now you’ve heard me sing my song

You’ll understand what’s going on

So don’t you ask me

I’ve told you once before

I don’t write sad songs

Maybe some bad songs but

I don’t write sad songs anymore
