People have misunderstandings Of what life is all about They put values on the wrong things And in happiness they lose out
Cause being happy's a feeling It's all a frame of mind And every moment you feel sad and blue You could be having a real good time
Chorus: Why don't you jump for joy and be happy Why don't you jump for joy and be glad If you just try it, you'll feel better And have the best time you've ever had
There is no sense in worrying Cause that won't solve a thing Chances are whatever's worrying you Is not as bad as it seems
Being down won't last forever Cause nothing stays the same You will will have a bright tomorrow There's always sunshine after rain
Chorus: Why don't you jump for joy and be happy Why don't you jump for joy and be glad If you just try it, you'll feel better And have the best time you've ever had
