You Should Be Glad Lyrics - Earth To America - Widespread Panic

You should be glad 

You should be happy to be alive 

You should be glad 

You should be happy 

My blood runs through your veins 

Another stormy night up in Memphis 

A band of black clouds rides overhead 

Slept seven days and nights on an old greyhound dog 

Came limping in to Union Station 

Now that I have had my fun 

It's good to be back again 

We finally found the place in time 

To call our own 

She is uncontrollable 

Let her cry, let her cry, let her cry 

She is inconsolable 

Let her cry, let her cry, let her cry 

We don't have to do this 

We just walk away from here 

You should be glad 

You should be happy to be alive 

You should be glad 

You should be happy 

That the day is new 

I was dreaming we were floating down the Natchez Trace 

Our angels were falling in 

I saw the outline of a spirit sliding cross the river 

Laughing at cracks about the devil's backbone 

Walking in the haze, Sunday's Independence Day 

Another good excuse for a celebration 

We sang songs of liberty 

Kind of takes the sting out of occupation 

Now that I have had my fun 

It's good to be back again 

We finally found the time and place 

To call our own 

She is uncontrollable 

Let her cry, let her cry, let her cry 

She is inconsolable 

Let her cry, let her cry, let her cry 

But you don't have to do this 

Just walk away from here 

She is uncontrollable 

Let her cry, let her cry, let her cry 

She is inconsolable 

Let her cry, let her cry, let her cry 

You should be glad 

(You should be happy) 

You should be glad 

(You should be happy) 

You should be glad 

(You should be happy) 

You should be glad 

(You should be happy)
