Why should I say, "Don't worry, be happy"?
To tell the truth I've been worried from the start
You know as well as me, we've got trouble with a capital "T"
Everything we got is fallin' apart

We've got a nineteen-seventy Cadillac sittin' in the driveway
If it had new tires, new shocks, new brakes, it still wouldn't start
If it ain't one thing, it seems like ten
Ain't had no lovin' since I don't know when
Everything we got is fallin' apart, so

Why should I say, "Don't worry, be happy"?
To tell the truth I've been worried from the start
You know as well as me, we've got trouble with a capital "T"
Everything we got is fallin' apart

Every time I think you really, truly love me
You've always got a reason to tell me "No"
Too early, too late, too fast, too slow
Everything we got is fallin' apart

Why should I say, "Don't worry, be happy"?
To tell the truth I've been worried from the start
Honey, you know as well as me, we've got trouble with a capital "T"
Everything we got is fallin' apart

Everything we got is fallin' apart
Everything we got is fallin' apart

Why should I say, "Don't worry, be happy"?
To tell the truth I've been worried from the start
Honey, you know as well as me, we've got trouble with a capital "T"
Everything we got is fallin' apart

Everything we got is fallin' apart
Every dog gone thing we got is fallin' apart
