Laugh Kills Lonesome

written by Michael Nesmith

All around the campfire stood seven dusty men
The cook was drinking applejack, the cattle were all penned
Someone must have cracked a wise one because the men began to grin
Their smiles shot out like sunbeams and made the night give in

Because
Laugh kills lonesome every single time
That's why Charlie Russell painted it
And why it looks so fine
Laugh kills lonesome every single time

Roy and Dale and Pecos Bill they knew all about this
So did Walt and Hasui who gave it their own twist
Sometimes, when things can't get much worse, life's become a fist
Someone will crack a wise one, laughter works like this

Laugh kills lonesome every single time
That's why Charlie Russell painted it
And why it looks so fine
Laugh kills lonesome every single time


Laugh kills lonesome every single time
That's why Charlie Russell painted it in the first place
And why it looks so fine
Laugh kills lonesome every single time

Laugh kills lonesome
Laugh kills lonesome
Laugh kills lonesome every single time
