Happiness comes, happiness goes
   where it goes, no one knows!
   What's in store, who can guess?
   It could be . . . happiness!
  
   If you're in love, an' she loves you too
   Oh never break her heart, whatever you may do
   Don't say goodbye ( Don't say goodbye! )
   to a love that's true ( to a love that's true! )
   because if you should lose your one an' only
   all your life you may be lonely!
  
   Happiness comes ( Happiness comes! )
   happiness goes ( happiness goes! )
   where it goes ( where it goes! )
   no one knows! ( no one knows! )
   What's in store ( What's in store? )
   who can guess? ( who can guess? )
   It could be . . . happiness!
