Happy Birthday to YOU! ! !
Happy Birthday to YOU
Whether you did something wrong or right,
Happy Birthday to YOU.
It's your day to be happy,
It's your day to be you.
To let your troubles fade and your light shine.
For it is the day that was meant for you.
The day that God made just for you,
It may be shared with someone else, but secretly in your mind you know that it's just for you.
So again I say Happy Birthday to YOU
Whether you did something wrong or right,
Happy Birthday to You.
Don't let anyone put you down on your Birthday.
Stand up and say...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! ! !
