Mick Avory - Look A Little On the Sunnyside lyrics

Look a little on the sunny side Even when they say you're on the slide And for a while they'll say your records never make it But in a while they're gonna be showering you with praises They'll give you mediocre reviews And put you in the underground for a while But look a little on the funny, sunny side of life Look a little on the sunny side You sing 'em the blues And then they ask for a happy tune And when you start to smile they'll say gimme dat rhythm and blues And when you give 'em dat rhythm and blues they'll simply smile and say We didn't want to hear you play We didn't like you any way It's very hard to please the people every single time But look a little on the sunny side Look a little on the sunny side Even when you feel you want to hide You gotta laugh, don't let your critics ever upset you 'Cos for a while the cynics will all be out to get you You gotta be shrewd, you gotta be strong You've gotta convince yourself that you are not wrong Whistle a tune and think of a catchy, happy, little song And look a little on the sunny side It's very hard to please the people every single time But look a little on the sunny side They're gonna put you down for a while You've got to learn to grit your teeth and smile And look a little on the funny, sunny side of life Look a little on the sunny side
