Vincent Lopez & His Orchestra perform the 1929 song "Happy Days Are Here Again" (which later on became the "theme" of FDR's political campaign during the Great Depression). This is a worn record on both sides, so I apologize for the poorer-than-usual audio quality. There are a few other uploads of this on YouTube, so you'll hear some better transfers of this I'm sure; I mainly uploaded this so that I could also upload the flip side (which I enjoy more and has no good quality uploads on YouTube).
Here is the flip side:    • Love In My Heart - Al Lentz & His Orc...  

Lyrics (Transcribed from recording and lyricsplayground.com):

(Spoken intro by Vincent Lopez unique to this recording):
Good news, friends!
Happy days are here again!
Lopez speaking!

Happy days are here again!
The skies above are clear again!
Let us sing a song of cheer again!
Happy days are here again!

Altogether shout it now!
There's no one
Who can doubt it now!
So let's tell the world about it now!
Happy days are here again!

Your cares and worries are gone,
There'll be no more from now on!

Happy days are here again!
The skies above are clear again!
So, Let's sing a song of cheer again!
Happy days are here again
