Lyrics
Happy
By Randy Bishop (ASCAP), Copyright 2011
Everybody has a moment
Yeah, everybody has one
That takes you back in time
Back when you were young
An old song on the radio
Can take you to a time and place
To simple days when life was fun
And better for the human race
CHORUS 1:
But I'm happy
Happy being in love
So happy
'Cause today I know enough
To take my time
Enjoy the wine
Smell the roses and say
I'm happy....happy today
CHORUS 2
So be happy
Happy being in love
Be happy
And be smart enough
To take some time
Enjoy the wine
Smell the roses and say
That you're happy....happy today
Be happy....happy today
Now I am not an old man
A little younger than some
Had my share of heartache
And working under the gun
But at this stage
I've learned to say
Don't take abuse
From anyone
Life's too short to waste away
So I'm just having fun
BRIDGE:
Gather 'round and let me tell you a secret
When you're happy, life can't get any sweeter
