Now listen to dih man call Maxi Priest
Man call Pleirs, dih man cal Chhaka Demus
Is just the three of us wh nuh bogus
Music dis is coming from dih flick of our wrist
We nah dis so listen to this
Ah tell yuh this

Happy days are here again
People gather round and tell your friends
It's great to be alive with a smile on your face
Cause that's alright
No you don't have to worry about your diamonds and pearls
You don't have to play around those kind of girls
You don't have to be the man who's high and fly
And that's no lie

[Chorus]
Oh singing happy days are here again
Everything we got is heaven sent
Think about how lucky we ought to be
Cause life's the key

And if yuh happy just clap your hands
And if you happy just stamp your feet
We a celebrate life Jah know say it sweet
Listen dih rythm you just can't sleep

People go to work, people go to school
People go to church to learn the golden rule
People like to party, people love the sun
Every day's a bonus when you're having fun
Repeat chorus

And if you just rich give to dih poor
The Father will love you more and more
And if you strong you help the weak
You turn yuh back you self defeat

Bap ba du bap spap

And if yuh happy just clap your hands
And if you happy just stamp your feet
We a celebrate life Jah know say it sweet

Listen dih rhythm you just can't sleep

Just think about the people who are fighting at war
Give me just a reason what they're fighting for
Life could be so nice if we inderstood

Learn to take the bad, like we take the good

[Chorus]
