We've had a lot of trouble, And we've had a lot of strife.......
We've had our ups and downs, As we journey'd on through life......
We've had our little squabbles, But theynever lasted long.......
Why, because, just because It's best to sing a song.

Chorus
Oh, it's a fine thing to sing , Singing is the thing,
It brightens ev'rything, When dark and drear..y
It helps you on the road, When you have a heavy load,
Singing is the thing to make you cheer.....y.

Verse 2
If ever you get worried and don't know what to do.....
You've got the humpy dumpys, And you're feeling black and blue....
Do the same as I do, I just simply jog along......
Because there's nothing stimulates a fellow like a song.

Chorus

Verse 3
I'll bet a silver sixpence, Singing helps to make us glad......
We can face the world singing, But we cannot if we're sad....
There's too much trouble in the world, I think you must agree....
We can make the whole world brighter, If you'll only sing with me....

Chorus

Verse 4
Of course , we know there's sure to be, A kick up now and then......
Because we've got to stand a lot, We poor old married men......
But do the same as I do, When there's an-y thing goes wrong......
I always say, says I to me, "Come on and sing a song"

Chorus

Refrain
Fal . . the . doo . dle . al,
Fal . a . the . dal . a . the . doo . dle . al
Fal . a . the . doo . dle . a . the . day!..........
