Just Smile

Life is nothing more than 
A bunch of test and trials
Please keep on mind 
Try always to smile

When the water it floods
The Egyptians on the Nile
The do not run from it
Get through it with a smile

When the hurricanes hit
With destruction so vile
They cleaned up the mess
Did it with a smile

When I child loses a parent
From no chance of revival
They know their pain is gone
And that makes them smile

Life is all about
Fighting for your survival
It will be easier 
If you do it with a smile
