Lyrics of Looking for a thing called happiness

You asked what i'm searching for fame or fortune oughta be a star
I'll have to admit it's none of these
You shouldn't even have to ask or even take a second guess
I'm looking for a thing called happiness
Looking for a thing called happiness tired of all this loneliness
Search most every day since you've been gone
Seems that i can't get no rest tried and tried and tried my best
To find a thing called happiness
( guitar - steel )
Sometimes it seems so very near then again so far my dear
I don't know if i'll ever find it
My search must go on i guess though it's hopeless i confess
I'm looking for a thing called happiness
Looking for a thing...
Oh yeah i'm looking for a thing called happiness
