Lyrics
The Rhythm of Joy
by Sandy Sherman & Jeanne Parson
I recall the day that Mama said to Daddy
"Our sparkle just aint what it used to be
We used to go out partying for hours
Now all we do is sit and watch T.V. "
In a jiffy he jumped up from his recliner
Surrendered his remote and said," You're right!
We aint dead yet so get the party going
Let's call our friends to come on by tonight"
CHORUS: #1
Life's a chance for celebrating
And a song is always waiting
Let your heart-----beat to the rhythm of joy, joy, joy
There's a way to face the music
It's just up to you to choose it
Let your heart-------beat to the rhythm of joy
Many came with heartaches on their shoulders
And knew that they could use a song or two
So Daddy fired up his dusty fiddle
And Mama played piano right on cue
Like a miracle their voices came together
I swear that more than music filled the air
I'm sure that they were serenading heaven
While a little piece of heaven was right there
CHORUS REPEAT:
BRIDGE:
That's the night we felt inside what words just can't describe
And all of us could feel how good it is to be alive
CHORUS: (with alteration)
Life's a chance for celebrating
There's no point in hesitating
Let your heart---beat to the rhythm of joy, joy, joy
Keep the pace and never lose it
When you still can make some music
Let your heart----beat to the rhythm of joy
CHORUS #1 Repeat:
Life's a chance for celebrating
And a song is always waiting
Let your heart-----beat to the rhythm of joy, joy, joy
There's a way to face the music
It's just up to you to choose it
Let your heart-------beat to the rhythm of joy
Let your heart ---beat to the rhythm of joy
