SONG:Heavy Makes You Happy (sha-na-boom Boom)

Ahh, whoa--great gosh a mighty...
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
say it, y'all
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
tell me, tell me, tell me, come on
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
well, well
(sha-na-na-na-boom boom, yeah)
I've been trying to find what's heavy that's been messing up my mind
i think i found the answer, 'cause it was right there all the time
Heavy makes you happy, i just got to say
put on your heavy, if i can't feel this way
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
come on, come on
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
do it, do it, do it, do it
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
(sha-na-na-na-boom boom, yeah)
By talking to my people, you know that it occurred to me
it's more than just a feeling--it's a philosophy
Heavy makes you happy, drying up your drink
oh, spread a little heavy and it makes somebody sing
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
come on, y'all
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
right on, right on, right on
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
(sha-na-na-na-boom boom, yeah)
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
a little bit softer, now
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
oh, do it easy, now
(sha-na-boom boom, yeah)
lay it on down
(sha-na-na-na-boom boom, yeah)
(repeat to fade)
