Funiculi, Funicula The Mills Brothers

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!
