Lyrics
- Ev’ry day can’t be a day of sunshine
We must have the gray days with the fair
Don’t you be complaining
If you have a rainy day
A smile from you will drive the clouds away
Chorus
Just keep on smiling, when you’re feeling lonely
Just keep on smiling, when you’re feeling blue
For all the sunshine, can’t come at one time
You’ll get your share of gladness, too
So don’t be grieving, keep on make believing
Pretend you’re happy, learn how to smile
And joy and laughter, will follow after
So keep on smiling all the while
- Ev’ry cloud must have a silver lining
You can find it if you only try
Change your blues to gladness
And your sadness will be gone
The darkest hour is just before the dawn
