Lyrics for When You're Smiling
When you're smiling, when you're smiling, the whole world smiles with you.
When you're laughing, when you're laughing, the sun comes shining through.
But when you're sighing, you bring on the rain,
So stop sighing,be happy again,
Cos when you're smiling, when you're smiling,
the whole world smiles with you
The whole world smiles with Yooouuuuu
The Leicester, clap x 3,
The Leicester, clap x 3,
The Leicester, clap x 3...
