I'll do my best to make you happy
To help you see the brighter side
So long as I can make you happy
I'll be satisfied
I'll do my best to make life worthwhile
Whatever fortune may betide
So long as I can make you happy
I'll be satisfied
So make the most of fun and laughter
That's what I always say
Why count the cost of what comes after
Don't meet your troubles, don't meet them halfway
I'll do my best to make you happy
Your friend, your counsel and guide
So long as I can make you happy
I'll be satisfied
