lyrics

On the road to Happiness,
I think I got a flat
My husband's leavin
And I'm still grievin
Now what do you think of that?
He says "Honey, I love you more"
But it feels just like a divorce
The cryin's just the same
As he walks away

And I say I don't think I'll get there
And I don't think I can
34 years and these brick walls,
And damn my head's hurtin'

Now you're movin' on off to Boston
And you've packed up all your stuff
The landlady says I'm not welcome
And all you do is shrug
I don't know what to say
Shouldn't you stand up for me?
The cryin's still the same
As I walk away

And I say I don't think I'll get there
And I don't think I can
34 years and these brick walls,
And damn my heart's broken

On the road to happiness
My engine's broken down
I just don't have the resources
To get to the next town
I chose the wrong career
My boss hates me, yes it's clear
Will all jobs be the same
If I walk away?

And I say I don't think I'll get there
And I don't think I can
34 years and these brick walls,
And damn my head's hurtin'

On the road to happiness
My transmission died
I just can't seem to shift the gears
To redirect my life
I always feel so lost
Every gain comes with great cost
Will the struggle be the same
All along the way?

And I say I don't think I'll get there
And I don't think I can
34 years and these brick walls,
And damn my head's hurtin'
It's been 24 years and these brick walls, and damn my head's hurtin'
