the smile that bubbles from the heart that loves its fellow men,

　　will drive away the clouds of gloom and coax the sun again.

　　it`s full of worth and goodness, too, with manly kindness blent;

　　it`s worth a million dollars, and it doesn`t cost a cent.

　　there is no room for sadness when we see a cheery smile;

　　it always has the same good look; it`s never out of style;

　　it nerves us on to try again when failure makes us blue;

　　the dimples of encouragement are good for me and you.

　　it pays the highest interest — for it is merely lent;

　　it`s worth a million dollars, and it doesn`t cost a cent.

　　a smile comes very easy — you can wrinkle up with cheer,

　　a hundred times before you can squeeze out a salty tear;

　　it ripples out, moreover, to the heartstrings that will tug,

　　and always leaves an echo that is very like a hug.

　　so, smile away! folks understand what by a smile is meant;

　　it`s worth a million dollars, and it doesn`t cost a cent.
