Fats Waller
Don’t Let It Bother You
Boy, what's the matter with you?
Oh man, everything's wrong
My old lady done run off with the iceman
What?!
That, an' my daughter done run off with the undertaker, and I'm about to die, and ain't got nobody to bury me!
Son, don't let it bother you
Listen here
Don't let it bother you
When things go wrong
If you're glum, just hum and some
Good luck will come along
Don't let it bother you
If now and then
You may stumble, never grumble
Count from one to ten
A frown is a smile upside down
Turn that frown upside down
And smile, sing
La de da de da de da da zing zing zing
Don't let it bother you
If skies are grey
Learn to grin, take it on to ten
Everything will be okay
[Instrumental Break]
Don't let it bother you
When things go wrong
If you're glum, just hum and some
Good luck will come along
Don't let it bother you
If now and then
You may stumble, never grumble
Count from one to ten
A frown is a smile upside down
Turn that frown upside down
Smile, sing
La le la le la le la zing zing zing
Oh, don't let it bother you
If skies are grey
Learn to grin, take it on to ten
Everything will be okay, yes
My, my, yes, yes
