Happy Jack
Known around the town as "some" boot black
Never worried though he worked like sin
Had a grin guaranteed to bring the business in

Every day
When they'd ask him how he got that way
He would tell them
"If you envy me just try my recipe"

'Cause my hair is curly
Just because my teeth are pearly
Just because I always wear a smile
Like to dress up, yeah
In the latest style

'Cause I'm glad I'm living
I take these troubles all with a smile
I'm a lucky fellow
I got the sun for my umbrella
That's why they call me shine

Shine away your bluesies
Why don't you shine?
Start with your shoesies
Shine each place up
Make it look like new
Shine your face up
I want to see you wear a smile or two
Why don't you shine
Your these and thoseies?
You'll find everything
Will turn out right fine

Folks will shine up to ya
Everybody's gonna howdy doody do-ya
You'll make the whole world shine
You'll make the whole world shine
