The Temptations – Happy People lyrics

Get up - everybody!
Happy people are we
Happy people are we

Throw away your life long pain and follow, yeah
I'll take you to a land of peace and a new tomorrow, hey
Brothers, sisters, come and take my hand
I will take you to a better land
Sunshine people love is all you bring
Dawn of a new day and here's the song we sing

Happy people are we - well, well, well, well
Happy people are we - hey
Listen children, now

Don't believe in this troubled world
We can get higher - higher
Come on along and I'll take you there
People, my people, let's party and get down
Life is for livin now let's don't mess around
Dance to the music, throw your cares away
It's a song of hope and better days

Happy people are we - everybody!
Happy people are we

Happy - happy
You and me both gotta be - happy
Everybody's gonna be - happy
Everybody's gonna be - happy
Brothers and sisters got to be - happy
Mothers and fathers got to be - happy
Everybody got to be

Happy people are we
Get on up, get on up, let me hear ya
Happy people are we

Get up, get up - everybody
Happy - happy - well, well, well, well
Happy - happy - hey, everybody got to be
Happy - get on up, get on up, let me hear ya
Happy - get on up, get on up, let me hear ya
Happy - well, well, well, well...
