And thhik all folks unkind
And Spring is duo to stay awhile
How happy you will be

Hard Luck
(from 1920 Sentinel)
Ain't no use, as I can see,
In sittin' underneath a tree
An' growlin' that your luck is bad,
An' that your life is extra said; •
Your life ain't sadder than your
neighbor's,
Nor any harder are your labors;
It rains . on him the same as you,
An' he has work he hates to do;
An' he gets tired an' he gets cross, An'
he has trouble with the boss;
You take his whole life through and
through, •
Why, he's not better off than you.
It whinin' brushed the clouds away,.
I wouldn't have a word to say;
If it made good friends out o' foes,
I'd whine a bit, too, I suppose;
But when I look around an' see
A lot of men resemblin' me,. •
An' see `em sad, and see 'em gay,
With work to do most every day,
Some full o' fun, some bent with. care,
Some havin' troubles hard to bear,
I reckon, as I count my woes,
They're 'bout what everybody knows. •
The day I find a man who'll say
He's never known a rainy day,
Who'll raise his hat right up an' swear
IN forty years he's had no care,
Has never had a single blow,
An' never known one touch o' woe,
Has never seen a loved one die,
Has never wept or heaved a sigh,.
Has never had a plan go wrong, •
But always laughed his way along;
Then I'll sit down an' start to whine
Than all the hard luck here is mine.
