What's the Name of That Song?

I teach a Mommy and Me music class. My theme for our final class is Happy. I found great song lyrics, but I don't know the tune. It's driving me even crazier, because I am sure I have heard it before. The only thing I can find online is the lyrics and mentions of it being a traditional song. I can't even figure out the true title of it...can any of you mamas help me out? TIA!

I've got that happy feeling, here in my heart,
Here in my heart, here in my heart.
I've got that happy feeling here in my heart,
Here in my heart to stay.

I've got that happy feeling down in my feet
Down in my feet, down in my feet
I've got that happy feeling down in my feet
Down in my feet to stay

I've got that happy feeling here in my hands
Here in my hands, here in my hands
I've got that happy feeling here in my hands
Here in my hands to stay

I've got that happy feeling all over me
All over me, all over me
I've got that happy feeling all over me
All over me to stay

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thank you so much mamas!!! It was going to drive me crazy. I KNEW I knew this song, but the change in lyrics was throwing me off. My mom used to sing the Joy Joy Joy version to us all the time! Marcimama's youtube link saved the day! Thanks so much!!

When daughter gets home...I will see if she can plunk down some notes!
