Harmonise
I want to write a happy song.
A catchy song that's not too long.
A song like Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah
Zip-a-Dee-Day.
Uncle Remus sang long ago in his day.
I have the urge to write something that will cheer.
Most things in the world today
Seem miserable and drear.
I want to hear laughter,
Tapping of the feet.
Music all around us
Some dancing to the beat,
Of a drum or slide Trombone
I need to hear people singing,
With others or alone.
The elderly clapping,
Waving hands in the air.
They smile broadly,
Without worry or care.
Their bodies swaying with the rhythm,
While sitting in a chair
Music, and Rhythm, help the world go round.
Rhythm and harmony,
Have got to be found,
Before this troubled world,
Is safe and sound.
