Verse 1)
There’s a burnt-out Chevy rustin’ by the county line weeds
An old dog on the porch and unpaid needs
Bartender said “Boy, you laugh at the strangest things”
I said “That’s what happens when life keeps yankin’ strings”
Bossman wore a necktie like a hangman wears a rope
Talked in circles ‘bout success while everybody choked
Girl said “Where’s your future?” I pointed at the sky
Said “If I ever figure life out, that’s the day I die”
(Chorus)
I died from serious people
Stone faces killin’ the room
Turnin’ every little joke into a courtroom doom
Yeah they sucked the smoke from the jukebox
Killed the buzz in every bar
I’d rather ride with sinners than saints in fancy cars
(Verse 2)
Preacher talked redemption like a banker sells debt
Meanwhile half the town was drownin’ in regret
One guy bragged about money like he’d conquered the moon
Then cried in the parking lot two drinks past noon
They all wanna fix ya, polish every scar
Turn a roadside outlaw into some office park star
But the drunks and the dreamers still know somethin’ true
A little dark humor’s what gets some people through
(Chorus)
I died from serious people
Cold hearts and coffee breath
Every conversation sounded one inch shy of death
Yeah they traded all the laughter
For opinions and control
But the broken and the reckless
Still know how to rock and roll
(Bridge)
So if you catch me smilin’
When the whole thing goes insane
It’s ‘cause laughter’s cheaper medicine
Than drownin’ in the pain
(Final Chorus)
I died from serious people
But I came back twice as mean
With a six-string resurrection and gasoline dreams
Yeah life’s too short for stiff suits
And people scared to feel
Give me dogs, bars, bad jokes
And something honest and real
I died from serious people
That’s the story of my life
Laughin’ somewhere past the city limits
Under busted neon light

Do You have a rewards card ?
Only in Heaven .
I need anger management . Thats not funny at all . Who the hell are you yelling at in that vocal booth ?
I'm curbing my temptation to pick up Blue from the gas station . Frisky 22 year old . Your old Elvis . I hate women you're annoying . Just the runway model ones . Hey how ya doing ? Well not in Dollar Store , No models .
