This was a song I wrote last year, and haven’t recorded until last night. We had a jam session at my place, so you’ll hear some folks you know on this live recording.. Feels like a old time sing-a-long as I listened again this morning.

Here are the lyrics:

Be Sweet Be Kind Be Happy
© 2014 Colleen Dillon

One day a friend was asking
How to turn their life around
They’d had a tough time
Felt the grief and the grind
And the world was bringing them down

They thought their life was over
No happiness for them
If they could see
Life’s meant to be
Full of joy even when your luck’s thin

Be sweet
Be kind
Be happy
That’s all you need to know

Be sweet
Be kind
Be happy
You’ll find where you need to go

Be sweet
Be kind
Be happy
That’s all you need to do

When you’re sweet
You’re kind
You’re happy
The world will take care of you

If you wonder what really matters
It’s simpler than you think
It’s not what you own
Or if your wallet has grown
To keep you away from the brink

If you think the world is cruel
It’s time to look inside
It’s simple and it’s true
If you help those like you
Your heartache will subside

Just Be Sweet
Be Kind
Be Happy
That’s all you need to do

If you’re sweet
You’re kind
You’re happy
The world will take care of you

Be sweet
Be kind
Be happy
That’s all you need to know

Be sweet
Be kind
Be happy
You’ll find where you need to go
