Dont Worry Be Happy


--by keepsmiling, posted Dec 14, 2007
This is one of the happiest songs I have ever heard -- Bobby McFerrin's Don't Worry, Be Happy.  Every time I'm down, I listen to this and I wanna share my happiness with you all.  Here's the video and below it are the lyrics to the song:

Don't Worry, Be Happy
Performed by Bobby McFerrin

Here is a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry be happy
In every life we have some trouble
When you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy......

Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry, be happy
The land lord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy
Lood at me I am happy
Don't worry, be happy
Here I give you my phone number
When you worry call me
I make you happy
Don't worry, be happy
Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style
Ain't got not girl to make you smile
But don't worry be happy
Cause when you worry
Your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
So don't worry, be happy (now).....

There is this little song I wrote
I hope you learn it note for note
Like good little children
Don't worry, be happy
Listen to what I say
In your life expect some trouble
But when you worry
You make it double
Don't worry, be happy......
Don't worry don't do it, be happy
Put a smile on your face
Don't bring everybody down like this
Don't worry, it will soon past
Whatever it is
Don't worry, be happy

I attached them to a collar I wear. wearing eight metal studs in a leather collar can become heavy. It took awhile, but I eventually choose Happy to wear on my collar. Recently I have noticed, I do not have to wear a symbol. I am happy. I might have to admit. I lie. I am only Happy 90% of the time.

This song means so much to me and it's a good reminder much more for this season that I couldn't really afford somethings I prefer but with this song I was able to refocus. Thanks so much once again for this, I hope your CD will not scrach because I can't stop playing it (laugh).
