Happy As We Wanna Be Lyrics - Rhett Akins

I've hung out with people with money, 

And I've hung out with people without 

I've had friends in high cotton honey, 

And friends with beans for a bank account 

Now what I've learned is to short for a book, 

And to long for a bumper sticker 

In this ol' world there ain't nothin' for sure, 

But far as I can figure

[Chorus] 

You can't get rich in Las Vegas 

You can't retire on minimum wages 

But with a little bit of love, 

And some cable TV 

We can be happy, relatively happy 

Cool as a glass of ice tea 

Happy as we wanna be 

Life dishes out some difficult lessons 

Life might hit us with a couple low blows 

But when we stop and count up our blessin's 

It takes ten fingers and a couple of toes 

Now I've found out what really counts 

Is what they don't teach in college 

'Cause it says right here on page number one 

In the book of common knowledge
