I wake up laughing
Thrown from a nightmare
I come down standing
When I'm tossed in the air
Bright as Tiajuana
Like a dose of Bella Donna
I could cry but I don't wanna'
And the dream's lost on me
I come out shootin' when trouble comes knockin'
I greet bad news by sending it walking
Happy or just crazy
Relaxed or lazy
Gonna keep my vision hazy
And the dream's lost on me
Cares are all buckshot and buffalo
Every dark has an afterglow
I'm not afraid of what's down below
I keep my sights on the sky
I wake up laughing
Thrown from a nightmare
I come down standing
When I'm tossed in the air
Bright as Tiajuana
Like a dose of Bella Donna
I could cry but I don't wanna'
And the dream's lost on me
I come out shootin' when trouble comes knockin'
I greet bad news by sending it walkin'
Happy or just crazy
Relaxed or laxy
I'm gonna keep my vision hazy
And the dream's lost on me
