Lyrics | Grin, Grin, Grin Verse: Farmer Jasper packed his things up, had to answer to his country’s call, Went down to the public square and said goodbye to one and all, Kissed his ma and pa goodbye before he went away, But when he saw his gal in tears these words I heard him say, Refrain: Save all your lovin’ till I come back home and grin, grin, grin, Keep on a smiling tho’ it hurts inside, but that’s the way to win, Good times soon will come again, just let the sunshine in, And save all your lovin’ till I come back home again and grin, grin, grin. Verse: And when all the folks saw Jasper marching down the street in khaki suit, Girls were askin’ for his picture, said “gosh durn don’t he look cute,” Soon the leavein’ [sic] time came near and tears it sure did bring, But when the train pulled out the station they all heard him sing, Refrain |
