Happy in love, ho, ho, what a feelin'
You're never, never, never happy,
Till you're really, really, really happy in love.
Nothin' on earth can give you that feelin'
You may be silly, silly sappy,
But oh, baby, baby you're so happy in love
You want everybody to know it
You'd like to get up on the highest steeple
Shout to people.
Happy in love, the sky is your ceilin'
Lucky, lucky, lucky chappie,
It's great to be livin' when you're happy in love.
(Orchestral Interlude)
Have you got a million in the bank?
Are you socially among the swank?
Let me ask you this, and please be frank
Are you happy?
Never mind how big a success you are,
You just can't be happy unless you are
Lucky enough to be like me.
Happy in love, ho, ho, what a feelin'
You're never, never, never happy,
Till you're really, really, really happy in love.
You want everybody to know it
You'd like to get up on the highest steeple
Shout to people.
That you're happy in love, the sky is your ceilin'
Lucky, lucky, lucky chappie,
It's great to be livin' when you're happy in love.
Great to be livin' when you're hap-hap-happy in love.
