What are some good songs about life, that are happy songs..not depressing or sappy love songs?

My dad is turning 50 on April 4th. I have put together pictures from his life onto a DVD, and I can’t find the right songs to go with them. He likes rock music, but not hard rock. He likes the bee gees, chicago, creedence clearwater, he also likes country music. Any good suggestions…(happy)songs about life?

    Try previwing some stuff by Boston, preferrably off of their self-titled debut album. The song “Long Time” would really work well in a slide show of someone’s life.
    Also, you can’t go wrong with Bob Marley. Listen to “Three Little Birds” and “One Love”

  8. Otis Redding – sittin on the dock of the bay
    Jimmy Buffet – (pretty much anything by Jimmy) cheeseburger in paradise
    Lynrd Skynrd – sweet home alabama
    Willie Nelson – on the road again

    HAD TO EDIT! I agree with above…Bob Marley is the best! No woman no cry may seem depressing to some, but that song makes me happier than just about any song ever. Just reminds me of no worries, vacation, etc.

    The Red Hot Chili Pepper’s Suck My Kiss is good, and Higher Ground is awesome for a happy song.
