I have been trying to remember the theme song from the Partidge
family show.  I can remember one or two lines, but that's it.
If anyone can recall the lyrics, please reply via electronic
mail.

				Thanks in advance,

There are a couple of versions to the Partridge Family Theme, also known as
"When We're Singin'" and "Come On Get Happy"

version 1 (the original, when the show first aired)

Come on now, and meet everybody
and hear us singin'
There's nothin' better than bein' together
when we're singin'

Five of us, and Mom workin' all day
We knew we could help it if our music would pay
Danny got Reuben to sell our song
and it really came together when Mom sang along

repeat of first verse (I think)

.............................................................................
version 2 (probably around the time Brian Forster replaced Jeremy Gelbwaks)

Travelin' along, there's a song that we're singin'
come on get happy
A whole lot of lovin' is what we'll be bringin'
we'll make you happy

We had a dream we'd go travelin' together
We'd spread a little love and then we'd keep movin' on
Somethin' always happens whenever we're together
We get a happy feelin' when we're singin' a song

repeat of first verse
.............................................................................

David Cassidy sang the middle verses solo.
