History [edit]

The origin of the melody is not known, but numerous sources trace it back to Spain, Latin America, Latvia or the U.s.a..

The vocal was published in various places through the decades post-obit the late 1960s, including a volume of "constructive recreational activities" for children (1957),^[2] a book of drama projects for disabled children (1967),^[3] and a nursing home transmission (1966).^[4]

In 1971, Jonico Music filed for copyright on the song, crediting it to Joe Raposo.^[five]

During the early part of the 2000s, the music Recording Industry Association of America actively prosecuted individuals for downloading music using file-sharing services. Widespread media attention was paid to ane 12-year-former, whose downloads included "If Y'all're Happy and You Know It" from Kazaa.^{[6] [7] [8] [9]}

In 2007, the song was included as part of the Nihon no Uta Hyakusen, a list of the 100 most well-known folk songs in Nihon. It is one of 9 songs from foreign countries included on the list. It was selected by the Agency of Cultural Diplomacy and the National Congress of Parents and Teachers Associations of Japan.

In 2020, Granger Smith recorded a version that relied on booze drinking called "Country and Ya Know It".^[10]

Lyric variations [edit]

Like many children'southward songs, there are many versions of the lyrics. A popular version goes like this:

If you're happy and you know information technology, handclapping your hands!
If you're happy and y'all know it, clap your hands!
If you're happy and you know it, and so your face will surely evidence information technology;
If you're happy and y'all know it, clap your hands!

This verse is usually followed by three more, four more than, etc. which follow the same pattern simply say: "If you're happy and you know information technology, stomp/postage stamp your feet!", "If y'all're happy and you know it, shout/say 'hooray'!" or "shout/say 'amen'!", "If y'all're happy and yous know it, do all three!" and "If yous're happy and yous know it, practice all 4!". Other versions of the vocal tend to say "then your face will surely show it" in place of "and you really want to show it"; the grade "so you lot really ought to prove it" has too been used. Many variations on the substance of the kickoff three verses be, including:^[11]
