Intro
Verse 1
When I sing this song, y'all,
Singing it for my baby.
She's the only one that can bring me joy,
That's why, I sing these happy songs. They go;
Chorus 1
Dum dum, baby, de dum dum,
Dum dum, baby, de dum dum.
Dum dum, baby, de dum dum,
Come on now, happy song, happy song now.
Verse 2
On a cold, rainy, windy night,
She'd shut off the door, she cuts off the light.
She holds me and squeeze me tight,
She tells me; Big O, every-thing is all right, and I go;
Chorus 2
Dum dum, baby, de dum dum,
Dum dum, baby, de dum dum.
Dum dum, baby, de dum dum,
Come on now, happy song, happy song now. Come on...
Interlude
Verse 3
Bring my breakfast to the table,
When I go to work, she knows I'm able.
Do my chore, come back in;
You wanna see my baby's face, ha, grin, grin, grin, grin!
Chorus 3
Dum dum, baby, de dum dum,
Dum dum, baby, de dum dum.
Dum dum, baby, de dum dum.
Coda
Sing these happy songs, lovely, lovely song.
Sweet soul song, now.
It gives you such a feeling, a lovely, lovely feeling.
It makes you wanna shout, in fact it knocks you out.
Those happy, happy songs, those good old lovely songs.
Those sweet soul music songs, those good old happy songs.
