"The Happy Man" lyrics
"The Happy Man"
How happy's that man that's free from all care
He loves to make merry, he loves to make merry
With a drop of good beer
With his pipe and his friends puffing hours away
Singing song after song till he hails the new day
He can laugh, dance and sing and smoke without fear
Be as happy as a king till he hails a new year
How happy's that man who's free from all strife
He envies no other, he envies no other
But travels through life
With his pipe and his friends puffing hours away
Singing song after song till he hails the new day
He can laugh, dance and sing and smoke without fear
Be as happy as a king till he hails a new year
Our seaman of gold, they fear not their foes
They throw away discord, they throw away discord
And to mirth they're inclined
With his pipe and his friends puffing hours away
Singing song after song till he hails the new day
He can laugh, dance and sing and smoke without fear
Be as happy as a king till he hails a new year
How happy's that man that's free from all care
He loves to make merry, he loves to make merry
With a drop of good beer
With his pipe and his friends puffing hours away
Singing song after song till he hails the new day
He can laugh, dance and sing and smoke without fear
Be as happy as a king till he hails a new year
