My mommy told me something a 
little girl should know
It's all about the devil and 
I've learned to hate him so
She says he causes trouble 
when you let him in the room
He will never ever leave you 
if your heart is filled with 
gloom

So let the sun shine in, face 
it with a grin
Smilers never lose and frowners 
never win
So let the sun shine in, face 
it with a grin
Open up your heart and let 
the sun shine in.

When you are unhappy the devil 
wears a grin
But oh, he starts a running 
when the light comes pouring in
I know he'll be unhappy cause 
I'll never wear a frown
Maybe if we keep on smiling 
he'll get tired of hanging around.
