When you're smiling, when you're smiling

The whole world smiles with you

When you're laughing, when you're laughing

The sun comes shining through



But when you're crying, you bring on the rain

So stop that sighing, be happy again

When you're smiling, keep on smiling

The whole world smiles with you



If you suddenly find out you've been deceived, don't get peeved

If your husband bluntly tells you you're too stout, don't you pout

And for Heaven's sakes, retain a calm demeanor

If a cop walks up and hands you a subpoena

If the groom should take a powder while you're marching down the aisle

Don't weep and moan because he's blown, just face the world and smile



'Cause when you're crying, don't you know, that your make-up starts to run?

And your eyes get red and scrappy

Forget your troubles, have yourself a little fun

Have a ball, forget it all

Forget your troubles, come on get happy!

When you're smiling

'Cause when you're smiling, the whole world smiles with you!
