Happy together

Frank Zappa · Fillmore East [1971]

(Garry Bonner & Alan Gordon)



Howard: Say!



Imagine me and you,

I do,

I think about you day and night

It's only right,

To think about the girl you love

And hold her tight,

So happy together



If I should call you up,

(Call you up)

Invest a dime

And you say you belong to me,

(Ease my mind)

And ease my mind

Imagine how the world could be,

(Very fine)

So very fine,

So happy together



Mark: Just like a big rock show, if you wanna sing along . . .



I can't see me lovin' nobody but you for all my life

When you're with me, baby,

The skies will be blue for all my life



Mark: Everybody sing along like a big rock show, come on!
