People always say
Waiting doesn't pay,
Never put off anything
You can do today.
Wise as that may be,
I must disagree,
If it's tears you want to shed,
Take this tip from me:
Save your sorrow
For tomorrow,
Smile awhile today.
Work is fun
To anyone that hums,
Live today,
Tomorrow never comes.
If you cheer up,
Skies will clear up,
Clouds will drift away,
Save your sorrow
For tomorrow,
Smile awhile today.

If you have a day
When things go your way,
It's a very simple task to
Wear a smile all day.
But when gloom is king,
That's the time to sing,
'Cause a hundred years from now,
It won't mean a thing:
Save your sorrow
For tomorrow,
Smile awhile today.
Work is fun
To anyone that hums,
Live today,
Tomorrow never comes.
If you cheer up,
Skies will clear up,
Clouds will drift away,
Save your sorrow
For tomorrow,
Smile awhile today.
