Laugh And Be Happy

I know what's going on here ain't no grave mystery Y'all have lost faith in yourselves it's clear as it can be You can whine all you want to drown in your misery Or you can listen to me listen to me Laugh and be happy don't you ever wear a frown Don't let the bastards grind you down Laugh and be happy it's a simple thing to do Believe in your dream and your dream will come true for you There'll be a red sun shining in the sky so blue Blackbirds singing in the tree There'll be a real silver lining up there for me and you Listen to me listen to me Now the country that we're living in You mean the good ol' USA That's right It's never been about keeping you out It's about inviting you in and letting you play So laugh and be happy smile right in their face 'Cause pretty soon you're gonna take their place Come and whack whack whackin' like old man trouble Whacking on their front door Wanna send you packin' on the double But I ain't going away no more Laugh and be happy don't you ever wear a frown Get right back on your feet whenever they knock you down Laugh and be happy believe me when I say Everything is going to go your way you'll be on top of the world
