Cheer up little mother, baby is glad. Why should it's mother be drooping and sad? Go to your duties, why should you shirk? Look from the window, your husband at work. Open the doors, the spring sky is blue. Life is not dreary to any but you. Why should you worry and weep all the day? Out in the garden, your children at play. |

What do they know of life's sorrows and cares? Why let your own souls be caught in it's snares. Let the joy from their voices bring joy to your own And your joy will bring sunshine and smiles to your home Then your work will be easy, your burdens be light And your life will be happy from morning 'til night. Then your husband will love you and joy will abound And a happier home can nowhere be found. |
