Jack Jackson as John Jackson and His Orchestra
Come on and be happy
You've got to be happy
come on and be happy
Sing a little song
Get up with dawning
Get up in the morning
You've got to stop yawning
Sing a little song
Why do the birds sing
And then the first thing
up in the morning
So why not sing like them
Come on and be happy
You've got to be happy
come on and be happy
Sing a little song
(Scat by Jack Jackson)
