Kokomo Arnold — Laugh and Grin Blues lyrics

Lyrics

Now when you happy mama: everybody smiles with you
Just as soon as you feel down‑hearted: the whole round
world turns blue
Now when the sun is shining: everybody’s happy as can be Just as soon as it start to raining: you quiver just
like a leaf on a tree
Now I got something to tell you mama: and I really want
you to understand
Every man you see wearing britches: he sure God ain’t no monkey‑man
Now when I had plenty money: everybody want to be my
friend
Just as soon as I got ragged and hungry: now they all
wants to laugh and grin
Now I’m going to tell all you people: when I get on my feet again
Says you need not ask for no small favors: just go ahead
laugh and grin
