(Eddie Curtis)

They say a banker gets a thrill
Out of a million dollar bill
But that's something I don't miss
I'd rather have someone to kiss
'Cause my happiness, my real happiness
Is to love and be loved all the time.

They say a lion gets delight
A roaring thru the jungle night
I'd rather sing sweet melodies
To the one I want to please
'Cause my happiness, my real happiness
Is to love and be loved all the time.

My heart is young and fancy free
And love is number one with me.

I wish the banker many thrills
And many million dollar bills
I wish the lion much delight
A roaring thru the jungle night
But my happiness, my real happiness
Is to love and be loved all the time.

--- Instrumental ---

But my happiness, my real happiness
Is to love and be loved all the time
To love and be loved all the time
To love and be loved all the time...
