Becky Ginn - Smile! ! *

smile for the good things in life
smile for your health
smile for your friends
and smile for your wealth

smile for the roof over your head
smile for your looks
smile for your free education
smile for all those books! !

be happy about what you've got
be greatful
even if its not alot

shake off those worries
and dry those eyes
wipe away those tears
and that hatred inside

tell yourself you'll get through it
its just a hurdle in life
you'll get through it, you will!
there's no need to reach for the knife

smile for this gift
a life given to you
dont let it slip
you deserve a shot at life too.
