Lyrics

Boy, what's the matter with 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 is a smile upside down
Turn that frown upside down
Smile! Sing!
La-le-la-le-la-le-la, sing, sing, sing!
Oh, 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
