Things do go wrong, it's not long since I've been blue, But I know the remedy, I can see just what to do... Don't be a coward, don't be yellow, It always pays to be mellow, Stay cool, stay free and then you will see, It's best to stay mellow...
I was upset and in debt with no money, But I did not stay sad, it's not that bad, so remember... Oh if you are down in the town with no bus fare, Start walking and smile, in a while you'll be back home...
