Don’t You Cry， Now Don’t You Fuss - Barry Louis Polisar

Don't you cry now don't you fuss
I know you'll like it here with us
Though sometimes things seem awfully bad
Don't be sorry don't be sad
For every raindrop there's a seed
That'll sprout a sunflower or a weed
The world is filled with things to do
There's fiddles and flutes and diggery-doos
There's trees to climb and seas to sail
Bumps and bruises then there's Yale
Music art nature and food
Swimming in the river in the nude
Don't you cry now don't you fuss
I know you'll like it here with us
Though sometimes things seem awfully bad
Don't be sorry don't be sad
There's boils pimples plagues and frogs
Termites roaches sewers that clog
Though every rose has a thorny side
I think that you'll be satisfied
For every freeze there's a thaw
Or a wagging tail or a hairy paw
You've got flowers in the yard
Tomatoes in the garden and St Bernards
Don't you cry now don't you fuss
I know you'll like it here with us
Though sometimes things seem awfully bad
Don't be sorry don't be sad
You've got youth then you get a little older
Heat waves sun stroke it gets colder
Dogs will bark in the middle of the night
They'll wake you up but that's all right
There's beavers beetles bees and seals
Bugs and slugs and snakes and eels
Measles mumps fever and flu
Stomach aches heartbreaks sunburn too
Don't you cry now don't you fuss
I know you'll like it here with us
Though sometimes things seem awfully bad
Don't be sorry don't be sad
Don't you cry now don't you fuss
I know you'll like it here with us
Though sometimes things seem awfully bad
Don't be sorry don't be sad
Don't you cry now don't you fuss
I know you'll like it here with us
Though sometimes things seem awfully bad
Don't be sorry don't be sad
Don't you cry now don't you fuss
I know you'll like it here with us
