A mal tiempo buena cara
Ivo Pelay
In Tough Times, Keep Smiling
I don't have a dime, but I laugh
'Cause in laughter, life is found...
I don't have a dime, but I trust
That our country will pull through...
Today my pockets are empty
Languidly draped in black
There was a nickel left, and as I let it go
I gave it a death certificate...
In tough times, keep smiling
-as the boss says-
in tough times, keep smiling
and ride out the storm...
And to think that today in the world
Everything's going crazy
And the bucks have declared
A general strike...
If it were up to me, let the party continue
'Cause I'm just chilling
And I don't plan to stress out
'Cause health is all that matters...
My boss and her smile
Look like good fortune...
and in tough times... keep smiling,
As long as there's youth!...
I don't have a dime, but someday
Something's gonna come to ruin my day...
And I have a feeling that the joy
Of my boss will turn gray...
As soon as it arrives, I'll blow it all
And the good times will go on...
I don't have a dime, but I laugh,
'Cause in laughter, life is found!...
