I.
Oh! never sink 'neath Fortune's frown,
But brave her with a shout of cheer,
And 'front her fairly, face her down—
She's only stern to those who fear!
Here's—“better luck another year!”
Another year!
But brave her with a shout of cheer,
And 'front her fairly, face her down—
She's only stern to those who fear!
Here's—“better luck another year!”
Another year!
Aye—“better luck another year!”
We'll have her smile, instead of wile—
A thousand smiles for every tear,
With home made glad and goodly cheer,
And “better luck another year”—
Another year! another year!
We'll have her smile, instead of wile—
A thousand smiles for every tear,
With home made glad and goodly cheer,
And “better luck another year”—
Another year! another year!
