Ladies and gentlemen,
You folks who are down on life,
Ladies and gentlemen,
It's foolish to frown on life.
I can help you, don't refuse,
Ladies and gentlemen,
So here is the cure to use.
Let us all sing a song today,
Sing it out loud somehow,
Maybe we won't be here this way
A hundred years from now.
Let us all dance around a while,
Learn a new step somehow;
Maybe we won't be here to smile
a hundred years from now.
Let it rain and let it pour
What diff'rence does it make?
Life depends upon the happy attitude you take,
So what if your friends all turn you down,
Wear a big smile somehow
Maybe we won't be here to frown
A hundred years from now.
Ladies and gentlemen,
I have nothing more to say,
Ladies and gentlemen,
I've tried to make you O. K.
I have help'd you all I know,
Ladies and gentlemen,
So once more before I go.
Let us all sing a song today,
Sing it out loud somehow,
Maybe we won't be here this way
A hundred years from now.
Let us all dance around a while,
Learn a new step somehow;
Maybe we won't be here to smile
a hundred years from now.
Let it rain and let it pour
What diff'rence does it make?
Life depends upon the happy attitude you take,
So what if your friends all turn you down,
Wear a big smile somehow
Maybe we won't be here to frown
A hundred years from now.
