Lyrics

Pack up your troubles my friend, yes

And put them in old kit bag

And smile, for it's a happy day, yes

I said what's the use of fretting, yes

When fretting is so upsetting

So smile, for it's a brand new day, yes

And we, we must wear a smile

For it works for this world wide, yes

Day after day remember, that

Somewhere in your heart there is a remember

And smile, for it's a happy day, yes

And you've got the ability

To destroy all hostility

So smile, for it's a brand new day, yes

Pack up your troubles my friend, yes

And put them in old kit bag

And smile, for it's a happy day, yes

I said what's the use of fretting, yes

When fretting is so upsetting

So smile, for it's a brand new day, yes

We, we must fight the war

Against all evil

Day after day remember, that

Somewhere in your heart there is a remember

And smile, for it's a happy day, yes

And you've got the ability

To destroy all hostility

So smile, for it's a brand new day, yes

Wear a smile on your face

For it's love, it's no disgrace

Pack up your troubles my friend, yes

And put them in old kit bag

And smile
