There's a sunny side where no ills betide
There's a road that we must go
There is pleasant vales verdant hills and dales
Where sweet flowers ever grow

Oh the happy (happy) sunny (sunny) pretty rolling dales
Where the sweetest gladness ever there prevails
(sweetest joy and gladness ever there prevails)
Where the sunshine lingers on the hill
(sunshine ever lingers on the grand majestic hills)
On the sunny side of life
(on the happy sunny side of life)

There's shady dells where no gladness dwells
And the clouds obstruct the view
But a brighter way like the light of day
Is awaiting now for you

Let us sing a song as we go along
Let us banish care and strife
That the world might know as we onward go
There's a sunny side of life
