Upbeat Songs With Depressing Lyrics:

"I Never Picked Cotton"
The Lyrics:
It was Saturday night in Memphis when a redneck grabbed my shirt.
And he said "Go back in your cotton sack." I left him dyin' in the dirt.
They'll take me in the mornin' to the gallows just outside.
And in the time I've got there ain't a hullava lot that I can look back on with pride.
But I never picked cotton...
But my mother did and my brother did and my sister did
And I'll never die young workin' in a coal mine.
Why:
This is a thoroughly rousing and upbeat melody, for a song about murdering somebody and awaiting one's hanging in the morning!

"Then She's A Lover"
The Lyrics:
She's as normal as she can be.
She never misses "Jeopardy".
And I think that she'd elope With Dick Van Dyke.
Why:
Refers to "Jeopardy", the long-running TV quiz show, hosted by Alex Trebek. Also alludes to the song's subject's clear fondness for "The Dick Van Dyke Show", even though the direct reference is to Dick Van Dyke himself.
