The Mills Brothers - Funiculi, Funicula lyrics

Oh why should any heart be filled with sadness? We should be gay! Oh my, the world should be all filled with gladness In every way! A song can make most anybody happy So let us sing; My song is full of life and good and snappy It's got the swing! Join the chorus Now's the time to start Sing the chorus With a happy heart Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Do your little part Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la! Oh how can anybody keep from dancing When songs they play? And how can anybody keep from prancing We should be gay! I claim the way to loosen up your feelings Is sing and shout! I'm thrilled all melodies are so appealing I dance about! Join the chorus Now's the time to start Sing the chorus With a happy heart Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la With a happy heart Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la!
