Lyrics Happiness Is Just a Thing Called Joe (Vers. 1) - Ethel Waters

Happiness Is Just a Thing Called Joe (Vers. 1)

It seem like happiness is jes' a thing called Joe
He’s got a smile that makes the lilac wanna grow
He’s got a way that makes the angels heave a sigh
When they know Little Joe’s passing by
Sometime the cabin gloomy an' the table bare
Soon he kiss me an' it’s Christmas ev’rywhere
Troubles fly away an' life is easy go
Does he love me good?
That’s all I need to know
Seem like happiness is jes' a thing called Joe
He’s got a way that makes the angels heave a sigh
When they know Little Joe’s passing by
Sometime the cabin gloomy an' the table bare
Soon he kiss me, Lord it’s Christmas ev’rywhere
Troubles fly away an' life is easy go
Does he love me good?
That’s all I has to know
Seem like happiness is jes' a thing called Joe
