Nilsson They call him the laughin' man with the laughin' plan He's got a laughin' place and a laughin' face. If trouble tries to trouble in And tries to snake its rattle in The laughin' man begins to grin and trouble runs away. And when the devil tries to creep Into his dreams and tries to sleep The laughin' man a dream away, a slack, a slack a day. But the laughin' man uses his laughin' plan He's got a laughin' place and a laughin' face.
So the laughin' man uses his laughin' plan He just grins and smiles the laughin' man's way Then he makes the devil curse and run away. So when you're feelin' down or feelin' blue Just think of what the laughin' man might do Just draw yourself a nice and cosy bath Then look in the mirror and laugh, laugh, laugh. He is the laughin' man with the laughin' plan He's got a laughin' place and a laughin' face.
