Don't Worry Be Happy
Drew's Famous Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here's 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
Don't worry, be happy now
Ooh
Don't worry
Ooh
Be happy
Ooh
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 landlord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy
Look at me, I'm happy

Ooh
Don't worry
Ooh
Be happy
Ooh
Don't worry, be happy

Give you my phone number
When you worry, call me, I make you happy

Ooh
Don't worry
Ooh
Be happy
Ooh
Don't worry, be happy

Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style
Ain't got no 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
Don't worry, be happy now

Ooh
Don't worry
Ooh
Be happy
Ooh
Don't worry, be happy

Now there, is this song I wrote
I hope you learned it note for note
Like good little children
Don't worry, be happy
Listen to what I say
In your life expect some trouble
When you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy, be happy now

Ooh
Don't worry
Ooh
Be happy
Ooh
Don't worry, be happy

Ooh
Don't worry
Ooh
Be happy




Ooh
Don't worry, be happy
