I’ll have a happy new year next year ‘Cause things ain’t goin good round here And it seems to be so sad That it’s January first and I already feel bad I’ll have a happy new year next year
I’ll have a happy new year next year I’ve done run out of that Christmas cheer There’s a times square throng and a toning bell When the ball dropped down all went to hell I’ll have a happy new year next year
Oh how I wish that you were not here To witness this loathing and fear Darling darling I feel the strain The years just begun and it’s down the drain I’ll have a happy new year next year
