Laugh and Grin Blues Songtext

von Kokomo Arnold

Now when you happy mama, everybody smiles with you
Now when you happy mama, everybody smiles with you
Just as soon as you feel
Down‑hearted: the whole round world turns blue

Now when the sun is shining, everybody's happy as can be
Now when the sun is shining, everybody's happy as can be
Just as soon as it start to raining,
You quiver just like a leaf on a tree

Now I got something to tell you mama,
And I really want you to understand
Now I got something to tell you mama,
And I really want you to understand
Every man you see wearing britches, he sure God ain't no monkey‑man

Now when I had plenty money, everybody want to be my friend
Now when I had plenty money, everybody want to be my friend
Just as soon as I got ragged and
Hungry, now they all wants to laugh and grin

Now I'm going to tell all you people, when I get on my feet again
Now I'm going to tell all you people, when I get on my feet again
Says you need not ask for no small
Favours, just go ahead laugh and grin
