Gettin' Happy

(Dolly Parton)



Without a love to call my own my life was incomplete

It seems I couldn't help but think that love was not for me

But my life took on a different twist when I met me a man that I couldn't resist

I didn't know what all I'd missed, and I'm a gettin' happy

Oh, I'm a gettin' happy.



Yeah, I'm a gettin' happy - all my lonely days are gone

I'm a gettin' happy - no more lonely nights alone

I got someone to call my own and now my life is like a song

And he helps me sing along - I'm a gettin' happy

Oh, I'm a gettin' happy.



Oh, people used to talk of love and I couldn't understand

About the fire and the desire in lovin' a good man

Oh, but now I know just what they meant since I met me a man that was Heaven sent

Wonder where the sadness went, cause I'm a gettin' happy

Oh, I'm a gettin' happy.



I'm a gettin' happy - all my lonely days are gone

I'm a gettin' happy - no more lonely nights alone

I got someone to call my own and now my life is like a song

And he helps me sing along - an' I'm a gettin' happy

Oh, I'm a gettin' happy - whoo!

Yeah, I'm gettin' happy - all my lonely days are gone

I'm a gettin' happy - no more lonely nights alone

I got someone to call my own, now my life is like a song

Got someone to sing along and I'm a gettin' happy

Oh, I'm a gettin' happy.



Yeah, I'm gettin' happy - all my lonely days are gone

I'm a gettin' happy - no more lonely nights alone

I got someone to call my own, now my life is like a song

Got someone to sing along and I'm a gettin' happy

Oh, I'm a gettin' happy...
