I left me Island long ago
Never to return no more
But everywhere I roomed and stayed
I missed my friends of the bygone days

Jack and Harold and Uncle James
Henrietta, Robin were their names
Now I finally returned
I looked them up and this I learned

Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again
Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again

Jack had a girl he loved her so
She said goodbye with all his dough
Now alone and broke again
She ran off with his best friend

Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again
Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again

Harold had friends and he had fame
The a big policeman came
His fame was noteriety
His friends were all married to him

Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again
Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again

Alcoholics anonymous
Asked James if he was man or mouse
The cure was bad but now no pain
He's healthy and now he's drunk again

Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again
Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again

Henrietta wished to be
A young mother of two or three
A mother who became a rake
But the child was illegitimate

Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again
Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again

Robin was the scholar type
He wore bifocals and a pipe
He stuidied caligraphy
Now he's in for forgery

Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again
Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again

Happy days are here again
No more sweat, no more strain
Everything back to normal
No troubles, no worries at all

Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again
Happy days, happy days
Happy days are here again
