Happy Feet

Cab Calloway


Happy feet! I've got those hap-hap-happy feet! 
Give them a low-down beat 
And they begin dancing! 
I've got those ten little tip-tap-tapping toes, 
When they hear a tune 
I can't control the dancing, dear, 
To save my soul! 

Those weary blues can't get into my shoes, 
Because my shoes refuse 
To ever grow weary. 
I keep cheerful on an earful 
Of music sweet; 
Just got those hap-hap-happy feet!

Happy feet! 
I've got those happy feet! 
Give them a lowdown beat 
And they begin dancing! 
I've got those 
Ten little tapping toes, 
And when I hear a tune 
I can't control my dancing heels, 
To save my soul! 
Weary blues 
Can't get into my shoes, 
Because my shoes refuse 
To ever grow weary! 
I keep cheerful on an earful 
Of music sweet; 
'Cause I got those happy la-de-da-da!
