don't let it bother you

"Oh what's de matter wid you?

"Oh man, everything's wrong!
My old lady's done run off with the ice man!".

"What?".

"That's it, my daughter's run off with the undertaker!
And I ain't got a dime, ain't got nobody to bury me!".

"Son, don't let it bother you!
Listen here!".

Don't let it bother you
When things go wrong.
If you're glum, just hum this song,
Good luck will come along!

Don't let it bother you
If, now and then,
You may stumble,
Never grumble,
Count from one to ten!

A frown's a smile upside down,
Turn that frown upside down!
Then smile! Sing!
La-de-da-de-da-de-da, sing sing sing!

Don't let it bother you
If skies are grey.
Learn to grin,
Take it on the chin,
Everything will be okay!

Don't let it bother you
When things go wrong.
If you're glum, just hum this song,
Good luck will come along!

Don't let it bother you
If, now and then,
You may stumble,
Never grumble,
Count from one to ten!

A frown's a smile upside down,
Turn that frown upside down!
Smile! Sing!
La-le-la-le-la-le-la, sing sing sing!

Don't let it bother you
If skies are grey.
Learn to grin,
Take it on the chin,
Everything will be okay, yes!
(My my, yes yes!)
