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
And 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
And 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
Then we'll all be happy people, happy people
Yeah we'll all be happy people
Yeah we'll all be happy people

Well, life is short and love is rare
And we all deserve to be happy while we're here
