Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sing, sing a song
Sing out loud, sing out strong
Sing of good things, not bad
Sing of happy, not sad
[Verse 2]
Sing, sing a song
Make it simple to last your whole life long
Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear
Just sing, sing a song
[Verse 3]
La, la, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la, la, la-la-la-la
[Verse 4]
(Sing, sing a song)
(Let the world sing along)
(Sing of love there could be)
(Sing for you and for me)
[Verse 5]
(Sing, sing a song)
Make it simple to last your whole life long
Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear
Just sing, sing a song
(Just sing, sing a song)
Just sing, sing a song
[Verse 6]
La, la, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la, la, la-la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la, la, la-la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la, la, la-la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la, la, la-la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la, la, la-la-la-la
