Lyrics

When I sing this song (I'm) Singing it for my baby She s the only one that can bring me joy Thats why, I sing these happy songs They go Dum dum baby de dum dum Dum dum baby de dum dum Dum dum baby de dum dum (Come on now) Happy song Happy song (now) On a cold rainy windy night She'd shut off the door She cuts off the light She holds me and squeeze me tight She tells me Big O, everythings gonna be all right Dum dum baby de dum dum Dum dum baby de dum dum Dum dum baby de dum dum (Come on now) Those Happy songs Happy, happy song (now) Come on... Bring my breakfast to the table When I go to work She knows I'm able Do my chore I come back in You wanna see my babys face Grin, grin grin grin Dum dum baby de dum dum Dum dum baby de dum dum Dum dum baby de dum dum Sing these happy songs Lovely lovely song Sweet soul song It gives you such a feeling A lovely lovely feeling It makes you wanna shout In fact it knocks you out Those happy happy songs Those good old lovely songs Those sweet soul music songs Those good old happy songs
