When you've got the blues you've gotta sing a happy song, my friend
'Cause if you keep on singing those sad blues songs
Your blues will never come to an end!
I went walking just the other day
Guess who happened to walk my way
It was my best friend!
And she had the bluuuuuuuues!!
She said, "Hey, Jacob, oh, what can I do? I just can't seem to get rid of these blues
I keep singing the same sad songs to you"
When you've got the blues you've gotta sing a happy song, my friend
'Cause if you keep on singing those sad blues songs
Your blues will never come to an end!
I said, "Hey, baby, now don't you cry. I've got something special for you to try
And it'll feel so good
And it'll be alright!
Just open up your heart, let it grow strong
You'll start feeling feeling before too long
Just sing out happy song, it's true!!!"
When you've got the blues you've gotta sing a happy song, my friend
'Cause if you keep on singing those sad blues songs
Your blues will never come to an end!
Love me or leave me or let me go
But every time you sing my songs I want you to know
Love comes from within, it's the same old cliche
I practice all my tropes every single day, hey, hey!
Once I was lost
Now I'm found!
Was I was wronged
Put in the ground!
My hand balled tight
I held on to the past!
Now I am free at last!!!
