o1lection the following lines:
wouldn't this old world be better
IF the folks we meet would say
7 know something good about you!
And then treat us just that way
Wou1dn't it be fine and dandy
If each handclasp warm ana true'
Carried with it this assurance
I know something good about you!
wouldn't life be lots more happV
If the good that's in us all
We're the only thing about US
That folks bothered to recall?
wor1dn,t life be lots more happy
IF we praised the good we see!
For there's such a lot of goodness
In the worst of you and me.
Wouldn't it be nice to practice
That fine way of thinking' 100
Won know something good about me me
know something good about you!
