Uh, by the way, that was "lovely" not "lonely."  Just what kind of
show do you think that was?? :-)

I remember "Come On Get Happy," however, I don't remember the one you
posted... (though I did recognize about 3 of the lines but I thought 
the rest of the lyrics were very different, but I, too, haven't seen the
show in a long time, so you never know).  From a very old audio cassette
I made as a kid (don't ask me why, it's a long story):

Come on world, here's the song that we're singing
"Come on get happy."
A whole lot of lovin' is what we'll be bringing
We'll make you happy.
We had a dream we'd go travelin' together
We'd spread a little love and it would keep moving on
Something always happens whenever we're together
We get a happy feeling when we're singing a song.
Travelin' along there's a song that we're singing
"Come on get happy"
We'll make you happy.

I think it belongs in net.tv.  I feel like this is more tv
fandom than trivia (I know people who divide trivia into two categories:
REAL trivia and garbage trivia... guess where this would fall!).
