Happy Days Are Here Again (The Garry Moore Show, May 1962) Songtext
von Barbra Streisand

You know one of the biggest thrills
For a guy who′s been around this business as long as I have
Is the advent of a bright, new, young star
Several weeks ago a very talented, 19 year old new comer
Named Barbra Streisand
Did a comedy song in the Broadway musical, I Can Get It for You Wholesale
And she stopped the show cold
Also, in addition to that, she appears nightly
At the Bonsoir and kills the people there

And I was delighted to learn, during rehearsals this week
That she is equally effective in straight numbers
As she is when she's being zany
Here, then, is Ms. Barbra Streisand

With a full carat earring, buy a glass of champagne
Champagne, gotta celebrate
′Cause my last million dollars just went right down the drain
Champagne, gotta celebrate


I'm broke, I'm poor, I′m back where I started
And sure, I′m sure, I've never felt so lighthearted
Happy days
I′ll have another

Happy days are here again
The skies above are clear again
Let us sing a song of cheer again
Happy days are here again

All together shout it now
There's no one who can doubt it now
Let us 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 clear again
Let us sing a song of cheer again
Happy days, happy times
Happy landings
Happy days are here again
