Soothin'

Smile, 'Chile
Don't let that sucka make you cry
You are so much better than that
Hush, Chile',dry your eye

Come, Chile', don't you fret none
You got mo' to live fo', gurl
You got yougin's what love you fo' who you are
And enuf' love in you to cover the world

Laugh, Chile', no mo' frownin'
Go on out and buy some new clothes
Make yo'sef feel all new and polished
get yo'nails done and yo' toes

Then go out to the danceflo' and dance to tunes that are soothin'
Have a time there, let down you' hair
I promise dem men will all try to court you
And that sucka won't be in yo' mind nowhere

And trust, Chile', in God-yo' maker
He make the sun rise and set
And one day yo' true love will find you
And yo' needs and wants will fo'eva be met
