about

Written by Andy Furgeson/Red Yarn. Produced by Dean Jones.

lyrics

Well the other day I met a little bunny
She said, "Listen man, don't you think it's funny
How so many folks just want to sit around
Aw, and moan and mope about what gets them down"

CHORUS:
You gotta stand right up
You gotta raise your voice
You gotta get up with me
And jump for joy
You gotta rise and shine
You gotta make some noise
Aw, dance with freedom
And jump, jump, jump for joy

And the other evening I heard a little bullfrog
With his scratchy singing that sweet love song
He said, It don't matter if you're loud or quiet
If you sing your love out, nobody can deny it

CHORUS

I hope that everybody understands
That the tools we need are in our hands
And I hope that everybody cross the land
Can find that something that makes them stand
Clap their hands, do a dance
Say "Yes we can"

Stand right up
Raise our voice
Get up with me
And jump for joy
Rise and shine
And make some noise
Dance with freedom
And jump, jump, jump for joy

Jump, jump, jump a little little
Jump, jump, jump a little little
Jump, jump, jump a little little
Jump, jump, jump for joy...
