Smile

It's easy stride where the road is wide
And the pavement is firm and fne
It's easy to skip at good stiff clip -.
Where the road is long white line.
It's jolly good fun down the hills to
If there isn't chance to fal
But mans true blue if he juss pulls through
When there isn't path at all.
It's easy to grin when the cash rolls in
And your life is cloudless day;
It's easy to prance the costest dance
If the fddlers received his pays
It's easy to sing till the rafters ring
If joy is the heart of the song,
But give the fellow that doesn't show yellow
When everything goes dead wrong.
So remember, friend, until COSMOS end,
Until chaos shall reign supreme;
Until day and night take their last long flight.
And the world is shattered dream;
Remember! your frown pulls the next man down,
Leud hand make your life worth while.
Give beaming face to the human race,
Face fate with brave, smile.
