Happy people don't cheat Happy people don't lie They don't judge or hold a grudge They don't criticize Happy people don't hate Happy people don't steal All the hurt sure ain't worth The guilt they feel So if you wanna know the secret You can't buy it, gotta make it You ain't ever gonna be it By takin' someone else's away Never take it for granted You don't have to understand it Just do whatever puts a smile on your face Whatever makes you happy people Happy people don't fail Happy people just learn They don't think they're above, push or shove They just wait their turn And they always got a hand Or a dollar to spare They know the Golden Rule and what you're goin' through Even if they've never been there So if you wanna know the secret You can't buy it, gotta make it You ain't ever gonna be it By takin' someone else's away Never take it for granted You don't have to understand it Just do whatever puts a smile on your face Whatever makes you happy people These days they ain't so easy to find But they're the ones that you want standin' on your side There's no time for greed So if they need some give 'em a slice And we'll all be happy people, happy people Yeah we'll all be happy people Yeah we'll all be happy people Life is short and love is rare And we all deserve to be happy while we're here
