Sometimes I’m happy, Sometimes I’m sad. Sometimes I feel good, Sometimes it’s bad. But when I am happy, And I’m holding your hand, Nothing can stop me, Not the sea or the sand. But when I am sad, And my head’s in a whirl, I can’t get happy, Not for diamonds or pearls. I just can’t get happy, Not for diamonds or pearls. Instrumental Sometimes I’m happy, Sometimes I’m sad. Sometimes I feel good, Sometimes it’s bad. But when I am happy, And I’m holding your hand, Nothing can stop me, Not the sea or the sand. But when I am sad, And my head’s in a whirl, I can’t get happy, Not for diamonds or pearls. I just can’t get happy, Not for diamonds or pearls.
