On a cold rainy windy nicht
She'd shut off the door
She cuts off the light
She holds me and squeeze me tight
She tells me Big O, everythings gonna be all right


Dum dum baby de dum dum
Dum dum baby de dum dum
Dum dum baby de dum dum
[Come on now]
Those Happy songs
Happy, happy song [now]


Come on...
Bring my breakfast to the table
When I go to work
She knows I'm able
Do my chore
I come back in
You wanna see my babys face
[Laughing] Grin, grin grin grin


Dum dum baby de dum dum

Sting & Police - I'M SO HAPPY I CAN'T STOP CRYING

Seven weeks have passed now since she left me
She shows her face to ask me how I am
She says the kids are fine and that they miss me
Maybe I could come and baby-sit sometime
She says, "Are you O.K.? I was worried about you
Can you forgive me? I hope that you'll be happy."
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying
I'm so happy I'm laughing through my tears

I saw a friend of mine
He said, "I was worried about you
I heard she had another man,
I wondered how you felt about it?"
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying
I'm so happy I'm laughing though my tears
Saw my lawyer, Mr Good News
He got me joint custody and legal separation
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying
I'm laughing through my tears
I'm laughing through my tears

I took a walk alone last night
I looked up at the stars
To try and find an answer in my life
I chose a star for me
I chose a star for him
I chose two stars for my kids and one star for my wife
Something made me smile
Something seemed to ease the pain
Something about the universe and how it's all connected

The park is full of Sunday fathers and melted ice cream
We try to do the best within the given time
A kid should be with his mother
Everybody knows that
What can a father do but baby-sit sometimes?
I saw that friend of mine, he said,
"You look different somehow"
I said, "Everybody's got to leave the darkness sometime"
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying
I'm laughing through my tears
I'm laughing through my tears
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying
I'm laughing through my tears
I'm laughing through my tears

I think that this is my favorite happy song Don't worry be happy (performed by Bobby McFerrin ):

Here is a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry be happy
In every life we have some trouble
When you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy......

Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry, be happy
The land lord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy
Lood at me I am happy
Don't worry, be happy
Here I give you my phone number
When you worry call me
I make you happy
Don't worry, be happy
Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style
Ain't got not girl to make you smile
But don't worry be happy
Cause when you worry
Your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
So don't worry, be happy (now).....

There is this little song I wrote
I hope you learn it note for note
Like good little children
Don't worry, be happy
Listen to what I say
In your life expect some trouble
But when you worry
You make it double
Don't worry, be happy......
Don't worry don't do it, be happy
Put a smile on your face
Don't bring everybody down like this
Don't worry, it will soon past
Whatever it is
Don't worry, be happy

I agree with you, gvilluendas.
And I have another happy song: I feel good - James Brown

Wo! I feel good, I knew that I wouldn't of
I feel good, I knew that I wouldn't of
So good, so good, I got you

Wo! I feel nice, like sugar and spice
I feel nice, like sugar and spice
So nice, so nice, I got you

When I hold you in my arms
I know that I can do no wrong
and when I hold you in my arms
My love won't do you no harm

Great song too!

My favourite song about hapiness is the song "Felicidad" of the group "La Cabra Mecánica"

LETRA DE LA CANCION LA CABRA MECANICA - FELICIDAD (VESTIDOS DE DOMINGO)

Mata más gente el tabaco
que los aviones,
y he perdido el miedo a volar,
y enciendo la faria de las grandes ocasiones
en las nubes tengo un “Bemeuve”,
una “Pleiestetion”
tu foto y un par de postales,
sigue escribiendo donde quiera que tú estés.

Felicidad
que bonito nombre tienes,
Felicidad
vete tú a saber dónde te metes.
Felicidad
cuando sales sola a bailar
te tomas dos copas de más
y se te olvida que me quieres.

Nada mas verte
le dije a mi sentido común
que no me esperara levantado
y al volver a casa una nota en el “livinrum”
un adiós en los morros
y desde entonces duermo solo
fintito, acabado, caramba
y pagando los recibos de la luz.

Cuando menos lo esperaba
de pronto un día
a mi puerta llamó la alegría
y resulta que tenía tu carita
y resulta que estabas tan rica

y devoré tu piel, tu carne y tus espinas,
y rebañé,
to el suco, suco, suco, y rebañé.

Desde entonces en verano
nunca pido ensaladilla
ni antes de dos horas de digestión
me tiro al mar
he dejado de abusar
del tabaco, del café,
del tinto y del prozac,
pura Felicidad.

I was looking for a happy song and I found a classic one, this is a spiritual song. Before I found this great song I found old song named "If you wanna be happy" it seems like a joke, it explain that if you wanna be happy you couldn't marry a beautiful girl because she doesn't know how to cook and the husband will look smaller (well they were other times)

To wash (to wash, to wash)
Fight and pray (to fight and pray)

Jimmy Soul - If You Wanna Be Happy Lyrics

If you wanna be happy
For the rest of your life,
Never make a pretty woman your wife,
So from my personal point of view,
Get an ugly girl to marry you.

A pretty woman makes her husband look small
And very often causes his downfall.
As soon as he marries her
Then she starts to do
The things that will break his heart.
But if you make an ugly woman your wife,
You'll be happy for the rest of your life,
An ugly woman cooks her meals on time,
She'll always give you peace of mind.

Don't let your friends say
You have no taste,
Go ahead and marry anyway,
Though her face is ugly,
Her eyes don't match,
Take it from me she's a better catch.

Say man.
Hey baby.
Saw your wife the other day.
Yeah?
Yeah, she's ugly.
Yeah, she's ugly but she sure can cook.
Yeah?. Okay.

Monty Python, Life of Brian, 1979.
One song of that film is Always look on the bright side of life. It always make me laugh, at tha same time I would like to recomend that film to everyone.

Always look on the bright side of life

Some things in life are bad,
They can really make you mad,
Other things just make you swear and curse,
When you're chewing life's gristle,
Don't grumble,
Give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best.
And...

Always look on the bright side of life.
[whistle]
Always look on the light side of life.
[whistle]

If life seems jolly rotten,
There's something you've forgotten,
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
When you're feeling in the dumps,
Don't be silly chumps.
Just purse your lips and whistle.
That's the thing.
And...

Always look on the bright side of life.
[whistle]
Always look on the right side of life,
[whistle]

For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word.
You must always face the curtain with a bow.
Forget about your sin.
Give the audience a grin.
Enjoy it. It's your last chance, anyhow.
So,...

Always look on the bright side of death,
[whistle]
Just before you draw your terminal breath.
[whistle]

Life's a piece of shit,
When you look at it.
Life's a laugh and death's a joke it's true.
You'll see it's all a show.
Keep 'em laughing as you go.
Just remember that the last laugh is on you.
And...

Always look on the bright side of life.
Always look on the right side of life.
[whistle]
