Life Is a Merry-Go-Round - Donovan

Beneath the weight of the world I can be found

Among the chaos and the wheel, scattered all around

On the wild windy wave I’m tossed, cast away and lost

Now I understand what those sad songs say

Make up your mind to be happy

Life is a merry-go-round

If you miss out this time

Don’t let it fret your mind

Love will come round in the end

Make up your mind to be happy

Life is a merry-go-round

If an' you miss out this time

Don’t let it fret your mind

Love will come round in the end

Between the devil and the deep blue we find ourselves

Often Out of the frying pan and into, left on the shelf

Borne willy nilly here and there when our hearts are full of care

Oh my, now we understand what those sad songs say

Sad, sad songs they say

Make up your mind to be happy

Life is a merry-go-round

If an' you miss out this time

Don’t let it fret your mind

Love will come round in the end

Makin' up your mind to be happy

You’ve gotta make up your mind

Makin' up your mind

Makin' up your mind

Makin' up your mind

Makin' up your mind …

Make up your mind to be happy
