I'm a Happy Man

Woke up this morning a smile on my face

Looked out at the world what a beautiful place

The sun's shinin' in a blue sky above

A home and family surrounded with love

And I'm a happy man a happy man I won't take time to be sad

I am a happy man a happy man who's thankful and so glad

That I've been taught not to pity myself but live every moment of life that's left

There's just not enough time to be anything else

Anything else but a happy man

I won't be bitter cause I won't take time

For that kind of thinkin' to clutter my mind

A man just has such a little while

To spread a little joy and give a smile

So I'm a happy man a happy man...

I've had misfortune to visit on me

To break my weary spirit and bring me to my knees

But a man can never learn to appreciate this life

Till his joy's been mixed with trouble and strife

So I'm a happy man a happy man...
