How Much Is Your Smile Worth

If you want the big bucks
If you want to try your luck
You will have to align your ducks
YOU WILL HAVE TO SMILE

If you want to find your way
If you want the big pay day
You will have to find out how to play
YOU WILL HAVE TO SMILE

If you would like to grant your wish
If you want to be filthy rich
If you want to avoid the glitch
YOU WILL HAVE TO SMILE

If you want to have some dough
You will have to be in the know
You will have to stage the show
YOU WILL HAVE TO SMILE

If you want to go uptown
With the money dripping down
You don't have to make a sound
YOU JUST HAVE TO SMILE

GO AHEAD AND SMILE - IT MIGHT BE WORTH A MILLION DOLLARS

This article is dedicated to my step-son Richard L Jacobs Jr., and was brutally murdered on March 27, 2015. Everyone said he had a million dollar SMILE.
