[Chorus]
Smile, for me
Won't you just smile for me
Smile, for me
Won't you just smile for me

[Verse 1]
Baby girl, why you don't smile no more?
So you feeling unpretty 'cause the clothes you got on
They ain't even in style no more
Now you lookin' for some pity, you don't need it
Just pick your head up
Even when you're fed up
You gotta know that, you know that it's gonna get better
And believe it's a season, it won't be here forever

[Chorus]
Would just smile, for me
Won't you just smile for me
Smile, for me
Won't you just smile for me

[Verse 2]
I see you in your job getting read up
And your son need a daddy and a haircut
I've been in this position, remember mama's ambition
Wasn't easy, but every night she still fed us
Telling you to laugh through the pain, don't go insane
Then you say that's how you maintain, hard to explain
Don't be ashamed, We all go through it
Don't say that it's hard, just do it
Smile, on the days you feel like hope is gone and
Smile, just tell yourself it won't be long and smile
[Chorus]
Smile, for me
Won't you just smile for me
Smile, for me
Won't you just smile for me

Smile, for me
Won't you just smile for me
Smile, for me
Won't you just smile for me

Smile, for me
Won't you just smile for me
Smile, for me
Won't you just smile for me
