Happy People

[Intro: Dennis Edwards]
Get up - everybody!

[Chorus: The Temptations]
Happy people are we
Happy people are we

[Verse 1: Dennis Edwards]
Throw away your life long pain and follow, yeah
I'll take you to a land of peace and a new tomorrow, hey

[Pre-Chorus: The Temptations]
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

[Chorus: The Temptations & (Dennis Edwards)]
Happy people are we (Well, well, well, well)
Happy people are we (Hey)
(Listen children, now)

[Verse 2: Dennis Edwards]
Don't believe in this troubled world
We can get higher (Higher)
Come on along and I'll take you there
Hey, listen to me now

[Pre-Chorus: The Temptations]
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

[Chorus: The Temptations & (Dennis Edwards)]
Happy people are we (Everybody!)
Happy people are we

[Bridge: The Temptations]
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

[Chorus: The Temptations & (Dennis Edwards)]
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
