Scatter
A
Little
Bit
Of
Happiness
Around
If

Folks
Go
Around
Turnin'
Up
Their
Noses
And
Countin'
Their
Greenbacks
And
Smellin'

Wouldn't
Trade
My
Yakety
Axe,
Even
For
A
T-Bone
I'm
Confessin'
I
Never
Took
A
Lesson,
All
My
Notes
Are
A
Matter
Of
Guessin'Hopin'
They'll
Come
Out
In
Some
Kinda
Of
Manner
That'll
Make
The
Yakety
Sound
So
If
You're
In
The
Mood
And
Your
Feet
Start
Tappin'And
You
Feel
Laid
Back
And

Clappin'Then
