'Show me the way to go home' (words discussed elsewhere) is given with an intro verse that goes "When I'm happy, when I'm happy . . .   this little melody/ Everyone I greet;" Anyone got the tune, or can direct me to it?
Ta in advance, Leslie

When I'm happy, when I'm happy singing all the while,
I don't need nobody then to show me how to smile
When I've been out on the spree toddling down the street
With this little melody every one I greet.

Alternative chorus to finish on:-

Indicate the route to my abode,
I'm fatigued and I want to lie down,
I imbibed a little beverage sixty minutes ago
And it proceeded to my cranium,
No matter where I perambulate
On earth, water or suspended water vapour
You will always hear me humming this melody
Indicate the route to my abode!

Used to get a laugh

Do it as Gaelige (no 'fadas' on this comp...)

Taispean domh an bhealach dul abhaile
Taim tuirseach, agus ba mhaith liom dul a lui
Fuar me cupla deoch thart fa h'uair amhain o shin
Agus chuaigh se go dti mo cheann...   :-)
