Four and twenty sunbeams
Are dancing round my face
Four score and twenty more

You can’t go wrong if you sing this song
It’s a hap-hap-happy day

The sun shines bright and the world’s aright
It’s a hap-hap-happy day
Four and twenty sunbeams
Are dancing round my face

Are dancing every place

Toodle-oodle-oodle-oodle-oodle-ay
You can’t go wrong if you sing this song
It’s a hap-hap-happy day
