If You're Happy and You Know It is a children's song that was first covered by The Wiggles and other artists in an ABC for Kids: Live in Concert performance[1]. There was also a version sung by Dorothy the Dinosaur with Barney from Barney & Friends on Sprout's Dino-Mite Valentine's Sing-Along, using Barney's instrumental track. An official cover by The Wiggles themselves would later appear on their Nursery Rhymes video and album.
Lyrics[]
(1992 version)
If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands
If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands
If you're happy and you know it, then you really ought to show it
If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands
If you're happy and you know it, jump and clap
If you're happy and you know it, jump and clap
If you're happy and you know, then you really ought to show it
If you're happy and you know it, jump and clap
If you're happy and you know it, have a giggle (hehehehe)
If you're happy and you know it, have a giggle (hehehehe)
If you're happy and you know it, then you really ought to show it
If you're happy and you know it, have a giggle
(hahahaha)
If you're happy and you know it, pat your head
If you're happy and you know it, pat your head
If you're happy and you know it, then you really ought to show it
If you're happy and you know it, pat your head
If you're happy and you know it, wave goodbye
If you're happy and you know it, wave goodbye
If you're happy and you know it, then you really ought to show it
If you're happy and you know it, wave goodbye
(2016 version)
If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands (Clap, clap)
If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands (Clap, clap)
If you're happy and you know it, then you really wanna show it
If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands (Clap, clap)
If you're happy and you know it, stamp your feet (Stamp, stamp)
If you're happy and you know it, stamp your feet (Stamp, stamp)
If you're happy and you know it, then you really wanna show it
If you're happy and you know it, stamp your feet (Stamp, stamp)
If you're happy and you know it, shout Hurrah (Hurrah!)
If you're happy and you know it, shout Hurrah (Hurrah!)
If you're happy and you know it, then you really wanna show it
If you're happy and you know it, shout Hurrah (Hurrah!)
If you're happy and you know it, do all 3 (Clap, stomp, Hurrah!)
If you're happy and you know it, do all 3 (Clap, stomp, Hurrah!)
If you're happy and you know it, then you really wanna show it
If you're happy and you know it, do all 3 (Clap, stomp, Hurrah!)
