You Jes' as Well Laugh as to Cry.

You Jes' as Well Laugh as To Cry.
Yes, honey. know it's tough old
world
I've tried it a right smart whet;
Been joggin along the best could,
An | amt got nowhere yet.
But say. I've studied me out a plan
That | sorter wish you'd try;
Let in an smile for little while
You jes as well laugh as to cry.
Yes, honey. | know how bad it hurts
To be on the osin' side.
To trudge your weary way on foot
While thieves an rascals ride.
There's always something to hold you
back,
An YOU can't tell hardly why:
But great long face won't win the
race
You jes as well laugh as to cry.
Yes, honey, know that you an me,
If We could have our way.
Would like to reform the human race
An hasten a better day,
But jes' because the jobs too big,
An the victory nowhere nigh,
There amt no call to set an bawl-
You jes' as well laugh as to cry.
