Lyrics

SO HAPPY

See the girl on the roller skates
gliding through the crowds in the street
Her cheeks are bright as a red ballon
as she smiles at everyone she meets
Her mama say's, "Baby, Baby be a good good girl
don't go out and skin up your knees"
She say's, "Mama, Mama don't worry about me
I'm old enough to do as I please"
and she skates away on a breeze

See the boy with the old guitar
singing songs in the park all day
Watching the cotton clouds roll by
and drinking in the sun's warm rays
His Papa says, "Hey boy where have you been all day
why don't you get a job and make some money?"
He say's, "Papa, Papa don't worry about me
I've got love and that's all that I need
I'm as wealthy as I can be"

And he's so happy just to be alive
lonely people go by in a hurry
all tied up in knots with worries
but he's so happy, he's so happy
wont let trouble get in his way
he's so happy, he's so happy
making every day a holiday

Hear the children laugh and sing
spinning on the merry - go - round
swinging on the jungle gyms
teeter totters go up and down
their teacher says, "Boys & Girls spit out your bubble gum
and don't gorget to get your homework done"
They say, "Teacher, Teacher that aint no fun
we'd rather go play in the sun"
and so back to their games they run

And they're so happy just to be alive
lonely people go by in a hurry
all tied up in knots with worries
but they're so happy, they're so happy
wont let trouble get in their way
they're so happy, they're so happy
making every day a holiday

they're so happy, they're so happy
just to be a part of creation
they're so happy, they're so happy
making everyday a celebration
