Smile Your Blues Away - Claire Hamill

作曲: Hamill
When I was a little girl
I’m not much bigger now
My daddy sat me on his knee
Said "Little one, tell me how
How it is that you can see the sun
When all the sky’s turned grey."
I said "Daddy it’s because I sit
And smile my blues away."
Come on and smile and smile and smile
And smile and smile your blues away
When I was a little bigger
I’m not much bigger now
Well my mommy sat me on her knee
Said "Little one, tell me how
How it is that you can see the dawn
When it’s the end of the day."
I said "Mommy it’s because I sit
And smile my blues away."
Come on and smile and smile and smile
And smile and smile your blues away
And then one day I woke up
I wasn’t little any more
And instead I had a big girl’s problems
Knocking at my door
So I sat me down and I remembered then
What I used to say
Oh when I was a little girl
I used to smile my blues away
Come on and smile and smile and smile
And smile and smile your blues away
And now that I’m older
I’m not little now
And no-one sits me on their knee
But they still ask me how
How it is that I can make December
Seem like the month of May
And I tell them then
"It’s just because I smile my blues away."
Come on and smile and smile and smile
And smile and smile your blues away
