G'day all JPFolks,I got some great advice and contributions and I fine tuned me song and it's still, called- "Come along and laugh with me,Version2"/(c)10.07.03/Ray Thyer.

Acknowledgements: My many thanks to Graham for the 'Tag' and to TampaStan for his contribution of 'Verse5' which makes my song so much better.

Verse1.
Ain't no use in worrying, NO SIREE!
Gonna put all my worries behind me,
Come along and laugh with me...
Ha,ha,ha,Heh,heh,heh, Haw,haw haw
Heh,heh,heh,Haw,haw,haw, Ha,ha,ha.

Verse2.
Went on a diet 'n lost quite a lot
now I can't stand the sight of food I got!
'n bein thin ain't helped my appetite.

Chorus.
I'm gonna laught till I cry, don't know why.
Come along and laugh with me...
Ha,ha,ha,Heh,heh,heh,Haw,haw,haw
Heh,heh,heh,Haw,haw,haw,Ha,ha,ha,

Verse3
Now they call me 'Slim', I'm so thin.
No more diets for me, tomorrow I'm gonna
binge 'n party all night.

Chorus.
I'm gonna laugh till I cry,don't know why.
Come along and laugh with me.
Ha,ha,ha,Heh,heh,heh,Haw,haw,haw
Heh,heh,heh,Haw,haw,haw,Ha,ha,ha.

Verse4.
Life's like bein on a carousel,
lots of ups and downs as well
but it's great being on top a while.

Verse5. Yesterday my ol' dog died.
Struck me funny,don't know why.
Now he's mourned by a hundred...
homeless...fleas
'n me darlin wife told me she'd leave
if my laughin don't stop.
Ha,ha,ha,Heh,heh,heh,Haw,haw,haw
Heh,heh,heh,Haw,haw,haw,Ha,ha,ha

Tag. 'n she's gonna take her mother
with her too!
Ha,ha,ha,Heh,heh,heh,Haw,haw,haw
Heh,heh,heh,Haw,haw,haw,Ha,ha,ha...
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I hope this version puts a smile on your dial too and hope you like my song. Please tell me true if you do. best wishes,Ray in Australia.

Ray,

Remember the Laughing Policeman? Well this one reminds me of that song where the singer laughed till you followed. I haven't heard a laughing song in 5 decades. This may be the next.

Somehow being unemployed with a wife that's runa away and no money isn't a laughing matter. I think you've gotta be funnier than that!

One laughing song I remember was centred around the missus has gone thing. Matter of fact. Only lines I remember i it bar for the laugh wasMy Wife has gone and left me. I don't know what I'll do. haa ha hee he etc. And she took the Mother in law.
Remember the first take of this Ray, though not i detail. Tyhis one goes along alright but as Stab says needs a bit more humopur i it. variation of situations maybe.
Rather than doing the life is a bumer bit, give us morre situations where ya just had to laugh. Fox ate the chickes and choked on the feathers.
cat had kittens in grandma's coffin at a wake.ya missus said she'd leave if ya didn't stop laughing may be a good one to end on.

I like this and I agree with Stan that you could add more to it. I just like the concept of laughng in the face of adversity. I think I'll do it the next time something comes up.. Well written
