Just Folks HANG ON You never can tell from the thing of today What tomorrow is going to be Whether sunny or cloudy or dismal or gay.

But it's worthwhile to hang on and see. The thing that appears very difficult now Perhaps will be simple tomorrow. You may find a way out of youi troubles somehow, So it's foolish to give way to sorrow. You may be right down in the depths of despair And of sunlight see never a ray, And think you are getting far more than your share Of misfortune and trouble today; And perhaps you may thing tha 1 your outlook is blue. And get back to the job in the morning To find that the sun's begun shining for you And gloom has passed on without warning.

Fate plays some queer tricks in the course of a day. The ups, in the morn may be down; The frowners today may tomorrow be gay And the smilers show up with a frown. You may be right now on the brink of success. And again you may not, I'll agree. What is going to happen you never can guess, But ifs worthwhile to hang on and see.
