So long sad times, go long bad times, we are rid of you at last Howdy gay times, cloudy gray times, you are now a thing of the past Interlude: Happy days are here again, the skies above are clear again So let's sing a song of cheer again happy days are here again Altogether shout it now, there's no one who can doubt it now So let's tell the world about it now happy days are here again Your cares and troubles are gone There'll be no more from now on, from now on Happy days are here again, the skies above are here again So, let's sing a song of cheer again Happy times, happy nights, happy days are here again
