Lyrics Buck Owens – Sing A Happy Song

Everybody oughta sing a happy song
Be thankful to be a-livin’
The good things that you get
Are just interest on your givin’

And walkin’ a mile kind words in a smile
To everyone you meet all along
Can multiply with each passin’ by
And we all sing a happy song

Well, it’s a sad ol’ world that we’re a-livin’
A man told me yesterday
Well, he said I didn’t have any reason to care
‘Cause tomorrow I’d be blown away

Well, I wondered, was he right
And I wear all night until the new day came along
Then the sun shone bright and the world looked bright
So I sang me a happy song

Everybody oughta sing a happy song
Be thankful to be a-livin’
The good things that you get
Are just interest on your givin’

And walkin’ a mile, kind words in a smile
To everyone you meet all along
Can multiply with each passin’ by
And we all sing a happy song

Well, today you need a program
To see who to shootin’ who
And I hear folks a-sayin’
That tomorrow we’ll all be through

‘Cause we got a bum and they got a bum
And all God’s children got a bum

Everybody oughta sing a happy song
Be thankful to be a-livin’
The good things that you get
Are just interest on your givin’

And walkin’ a mile, kind words in a smile
To everyone you meet all along
Can multiply with each passin’ by
And we all sing a happy song

Everybody oughta sing a happy song
Be thankful to be a-livin’
The good things that you get
Are just interest on your givin’

And walkin’ a mile kind words in a smile
To everyone you meet all along
Can multiply with each passin’ by
And we all sing a happy song

Can multiply with each passin’ by
And we all sing a happy song
