Mama Belle: Sing me a song as we paddle along a Happy River!
Little Jimmy: Happy River-- doot, doot, whoo! Whoo!
Mama Belle: No need to doubt as we paddle about a Happy River.
Little Jimmy: Happy River-- doot, doot, whoo! Whoo!
Mama Belle: Catfish'll quiver, and giggle with glee, as we paddle down the river, just my Jimmy and me.
No need complainin' at the miles that are remainin'--Happy River.
Little Jimmy: Happy River-- door, doot--whoo! Whoo!
Mama Belle: We ain't highfalutin when the riverboats are tootin'-- Happy River.
Little Jimmy: Happy River--doot doo!
