I'm happy to say today I'm going away to play
I'm going away to play To laugh and jump and shout and tumble on a hillside
And sing with birds of wind The sound of earth or wind
Oh, wouldn't you say, okay If I invited you
Oh, wouldn't you say, okay I'd act a host and say
Please spend another two days I'd play the puppet fool
If it pleased you
Gone is the sad man Gone to hiding
Here is the glad man Happy and smiling
Maybe the mad man knows where I am
I'm happy to say today I'm going away to play
I'm going away to play To laugh and jump and tumble on a hillside
And sing with birds of wind The sound of earth or wind
Oh, wouldn't you say, okay If I invited you
When it's dark outside no one can hear me
All the children know they need us baby
I'm happy to say today I'm going away to play
I'm going away to play To laugh and jump and tumble on a hillside
And sing with birds of wind The sound of earth or wind
Oh, wouldn't you say, okay If I invited you
Oh, wouldn't you say, okay I'd act a host and say
Please spend another two days I'd play the puppet fool
If it pleased you
Gone is the sad man Gone to hiding
Here is the glad man Happy and smiling
Maybe the mad man knows where I am
Gone is the sad man Gone to hiding
Here is the glad man Happy and smiling
Maybe the mad man knows where I am
Gone is the sad man Happy and smiling
