Good luck improving your lot
the weary world is running low
be happy with what you've got.
Convinced you're such a have-not
when millions have nothing to show?
Good luck improving your lot
forgetting the frozen sot
with nowhere warm to go,
be happy with what you've got
not teeth consumed by rot
that starving children grow,
good luck improving your lot
before you fill your plot
and lose your chance to sow.
Be happy with what you've got
that you even get a single shot
to let a needy person know
you'll help improve their lot--
be happy with what you've got.

ReplyDeleteThanks Dave, as a songwriter I like the repeating line, like a chorus.
