song for today

It's an absolutely beautiful August day here in St. Paul, and life is good.  Ran across this today, and thought it was the perfect song to share.

Did you know Morey Amsterdam wrote lyrics for the Dick Van Dyke Show theme song?  Here you go:

THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW THEME SONG

(Music by Earle Hagen / Lyrics by Morey Amsterdam)Dick Van Dyke



So you think that you've got troubles? Well, trouble's a bubble, So tell old Mr. Trouble to "Get lost!". Why not hold your head up high and, Stop cryin', start tryin', And don't forget to keep your fingers crossed. When you find the joy of livin' Is lovin' and givin' You'll be there when the winning dice are tossed. A smile is just a frown that's turned upside down, So smile, and that frown will defrost. And don't forget to keep your fingers crossed!


Have a wonderful summer weekend!
