Shine

Cause my hair is curly

Just because my teeth are pearly

Just because I always wear a smile

Like to dress up in the latest style

Cause I'm glad I'm livin'

I take these troubles all with a smile

Just because my color's shady

That's the difference, maybe, why they call me

Shine, sway your blues'ies

Why don't you shine?

Start with your shoes'ies

Shine each place up, make it look like new

Shine your face up, I want to see you wear a smile or two

Why don't you shine your these and thoseies?

You'll find everything gonna turn out right fine

Folks will shine up to ya'

Everybody's gonna howdy doody do-ya'

You'll make the whole world shine

Oh chocolate drop, that's me...

Cause my hair is curly, (man's got curly hair)

Now just because my teeth are pearly, (also got pearly teeth)

Just because I always wear a smile, (oh keep on smiling)

Like to dress us, babe, in the latest style

Cause I'm glad I'm livin'

I take these troubles all with a smile

Now just because my color's shady (you's a shady baby)

That's the difference, maybe, why they call me...

Shine away your blues'ies

Shine, start with your shoes'ies

You'll make the whole world shine
