Every time you're near a rose Aren't you glad you've got a nose And if the dawn is fresh with dew Aren't you glad you're you When a meadowlark appears Aren't you glad you've got two ears And if your heart is singin' too Aren't you glad you're you You can see a summer sky Or touch a friendly hand Or taste an apple pie Pardon the grammar, but ain't life grand And when you wake up each morn Aren't you glad that you were born Think what you've got the whole day through Aren't you glad you're you Every time you're near a rose Aren't you glad you've got a nose And if the dawn is fresh with dew Aren't you glad you're you When a meadowlark appears Aren't you glad you've got two ears And if your heart is singin' too Aren't you glad you're you You can see a summer sky Or touch a friendly hand Or taste an apple pie Pardon the grammar, but ain't life grand And when you wake up each morn Aren't you glad that you were born Think what you've got the whole day through Aren't you glad you're you
