Lyrics:

(Hoyt Axton - Mark Dawson)

Is your glass half empty is your glass half full now
I hope you're happy, I hope you're happy
Is your glass half empty is your glass half full
I hope you're happy, I hope you're happy.

When you weak up in the mornin', is your mind thoughtful
I hope you're happy, I hope you're happy
And that is why I can say to you without fear of misunderstanding.

Southbound how would you like to go
Somewhere tropical breezes blow
Southbound how would you like to be
Swingin' in the branches of the coconut tree.

I hope you're happy, I hope you're happy
And that is why I can say to you without fear of misunderstanding.

Southbound unfold your wings and fly away into the starry sky
Soon you'll be a friend of mine
Eat plenty of coconut and have a good time.

Is your glass half empty is your glass half full now
I hope you're happy, I hope you're happy
And that is why I can say to you without fear of misunderstanding
Southbound I hope you're happy...
