Every Reason To Smile
[Chorus]
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile

[Verse 1: Jeffrey Osborne]
Living in a one-room shack
You know it's good to look back
I love those times so well
You know I wouldn't change a thing
That's how I learned to sing
That's what I know so well
Yes I know how to party
And I know how to tell it like it is
I want to thank you for the good times
And the lessons that I've learned through the years
Don't you know that

[Chorus]
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got evеry reason to smile
I, I, I got evеry reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile

[Verse 2: Howard Hewett]
When I was very young
You know that I had a dream
To be a movie star
But as the years went by
I quickly realized
I had a song in my heart
Let me tell you, there may come a time
When you've got to realize your fate
And whatever you do in life
Just remember to keep the faith
Don't you know that
[Chorus]
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile
(Let me hear the children sing)
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile
I, I, I got every reason to smile
