"Open Up Your Heart (And Let The Sunshine In)" lyrics - KITTY WELLS

My mother told me something
That everyone should know
It's all about the devil
And I learned to hate him so

She said he causes trouble
When you let him in the room
He will never ever leave you
If your heart is filled with gloom

So let the sunshine in
Face it with a grin
Smilers never lose
And frowners never win

So let the sunshine in
Face it with a grin
Open up your heart
And let the sunshine in

When you are unhappy
The devil wears a grin
But oh! he starts to running
When the light comes pouring in

I know he'll be unhappy
'Cos I'll never wear a frown
Maybe if we keep on smiling
He'll get tired of hanging round

So let the sunshine in...

If I forget to say my prayers
The devil jumps with glee
But oh! he feels so awful
When he sees me on my knee

So if you're full of trouble
And you never seem to win
Just open up your heart
And let the sunshine in

So let the sunshine in...
