Happiness Within
People say I never smile
My enthusiasm is rather mild
Stoic is my style
Mister gray and gloomy
Somewhat blue and moody
But I answer phooey
Don't judge a book by its cover
Turn the pages
Who knows what you'll discover
Joy resides in
Happiness within my friend
Happiness within my friend
Being silly is not my way
Seriousness
Dose not mean Johnny never plays
A false smile chills all hearts
Forced joy makes all depart
Goofy action leads to retraction
Just be yourself for joyful satisfaction
Friends and family they know
You may not be a Happy Old Joe
But happiness within
Lets' true love begin
And when you smile
Its always worthwhile
