lyrics

"DON'T WORRY, BE HAPPY"
music and lyrics by Robert McFerrin, Jr.
recorded by Wil Darcangelo and the Tribe

Here’s a song McFerrin wrote.
You might want to sing it note for note.
But don't worry, be happy.

In every life we have some trouble
But 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.

Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style.
Ain't got no 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.

Here’s a song McFerrin wrote.
I hope you learn it note for note.
Don't worry, be happy.
Listen to what I say!

In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry, you make it double
Don't worry, be happy...

Woah, woah.
Woah, woah.

I really want to make you smile (I really want to make you smile) [8X]
Opa!
