Lyrics:
“SHINE” Words by Cecil Mack & Lew Brown. Music by Ford Dabney. Copyright 1924. Key Eb
VERSE: “Happy Jack – known around the town as “some” boot-black
Never worried tho’ he worked like sin, had a grin guaranteed to bring the bus’ness in
Ev’ry day when they’d ask him how he got that way he would tell ‘em
“If you envy me, just try my recipe”
CHORUS: “ Shine – away your blues-ies – Shine – start with your shoes-ies –
Shine each place up make it look like new, shine your face up wear a smile or two,
Shine - your these and thos-ies – you’ll find that everything will turn out fine,
Folks will shine up to ya, everyone will “howdy-do” ya,
You’ll make the whole world shine”
