I'm so happy I got the Lord on my side

I'm so happy I got the Lord on my side

If you see this big ol' happy grinnin' smile on my face

That's 'cause I'm happy I got the Lord on my side

I'm smilin' I got the Lord on my side

I'm smiling I got the Lord on my side

When you see this big ol' happy grinnin' smile on my face

You know I'm smilin' I got the Lord on my side

 

Stomp if you're happy

Clap if you're happy

Sing if you're happy

I got the Lord on my side

Stomp if you're happy

Clap if you're happy

Sing if you're happy

I got the Lord on my side

I got the Lord, got the Lord on my side

I'm so happy, got the Lord on my side

 

I'm so happy I got the Lord on my side

I'm so happy I got the Lord on my side

If you see this big ol' happy grinnin' smile on my face

That's 'cause I'm happy I got the Lord on my side

 

Stomp if you're happy

Clap if you're happy

Sing if you're happy

I got the Lord on my side

Stomp if you're happy

Clap if you're happy

Sing if you're happy

I got the Lord on my side

 

If you're happy you got the Lord on your side

If you're happy you got the Lord on your side

If I see that big ol' happy grinnin' smile on your face

I know you're happy you got the Lord on your side

You're smilin' you got the Lord on your side

Yes, you're smilin' you got the Lord on your side

When I see that big ol' happy grinnin' smile on your face

I know you're smilin' you got the Lord on your side
